Smoothie Variations And Recipe Notes:
You are not limited to these ingredients only or this specific recipe.
Consider adding other ingredients too if you fancy, or even substituting some to suit your preferences.
If you don’t have fresh ginger root to add to the smoothie, use dried ginger. About 1/4 tsp will be plenty.
Other options I have tested that you could try include:
- Pineapple Swap: You can substitute the pineapple, for mango, banana, and even berries. Just make sure they are frozen!
- Omega-3s Boost: Incorporate a tablespoon of chia seeds for fiber, protein, and plant-based omega-3 fatty acids.
- Tropical Smoothie Base: Swap the plain water for coconut water.
- Boost The Protein Content: If you are not dairy-free, you can incorporate 1/2 cup of unsweetened yogurt for extra protein and creaminess.
- Increase The Sweetness: Celery has a strong taste. Mask it a bit more by adding more sweetness. A great way to do so is by either adding honey, agave, maple syrup, or dried fruit, such as dates.
