Lucky Green St. Paddy’s Day Smoothie
Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with this creamy, refreshing green smoothie — completely dairy-free! This version combines the natural sweetness of banana and pineapple with nutrient-packed spinach and a hint of mint for a healthy take on a shamrock shake. Coconut yogurt and almond milk create a rich, creamy texture without any dairy.
- 1 frozen banana
- 1 cup fresh spinach (or kale for a deeper green)
- 1/2 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)
- 1/2 cup coconut yogurt (or any dairy-free yogurt of choice)
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any plant-based milk)
- 1 teaspoon maple syrup or agave (optional, for sweetness)
- 1/4 teaspoon peppermint extract (or a few fresh mint leaves)
- Vanilla protein powder of choice
- Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker texture)
Add all ingredients to a blender. Blend on high until smooth and creamy (about 1–2 minutes). Taste and adjust sweetness or mintiness if needed. Pour into glasses and garnish with a sprig of mint or a sprinkle of hemp seeds. Enjoy immediately!
Sip, smile, and feel the luck! 🍀
