# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The ginger gives it a satisfying zing that wakes you up better than coffee
  • It uses frozen pineapple so you can make it year-round without hunting for fresh tropical fruit
02 -
  • If you dont have a high-speed blender, blend the spinach and coconut water first before adding the frozen fruit
  • The ginger flavor intensifies if you let the smoothie sit, so drink it right away if you prefer it milder
03 -
  • Frozen spinach works in a pinch, but fresh gives you a much brighter, cleaner flavor
  • Peel and chop your ginger ahead of time and store it in the freezer for easy smoothie prep
