Whether you’re easing into smoothies or already a fan, this one is easy to enjoy and full of natural goodness from real ingredients.
Tips & Variations
- No spinach on hand? Swap with kale or romaine—just keep in mind kale has a slightly earthier flavor.
- Make it colder: Freeze the pomegranate arils too, or add a few ice cubes before blending for an extra chill.
- Want it sweeter? Add a small date or a splash of maple syrup if you prefer a sweeter taste.
- Add a protein boost: Scoop in some plain Greek yogurt or a spoonful of your favorite protein powder.
- Use what you have: If you’re out of coconut water, plain water or almond milk can work in a pinch. The flavor will shift slightly, but the smoothie stays delicious.
