FAQ

  • Can I use fresh mango and pineapple instead of frozen?

    Yes, you can! However, using frozen fruit will give the smoothie a thicker and colder consistency. You might want to add a few ice cubes if using fresh fruit.
  • Can I substitute the spinach with another leafy green?

    Yes, kale or romaine lettuce are good substitutes. Keep in mind that kale has a stronger flavor than spinach.
  • How long will the smoothie stay fresh?

    It's best to drink the smoothie immediately. If you need to store it, keep it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. The color and texture may change slightly.
