PINA VERDE GREEN DRINK

Pineapple, spinach and cilantro green drink.

Pineapple, spinach and cilantro pack this green drink full of flavor and health benefits. I am a smoothie goddess in the heat of summer and this one always sets me straight. This recipe can be juiced or blended. I like the blended version because you get all the beneficial fiber. Want something lighter? Run all the ingredients through the juicer. The end result is a deliciously bright, healthy green drink that will have your skin glowing, mind sharp and energy vibrant.

INGREDIENTS

1 inch slice of whole pineapple

1 handful of cilantro

1 handful of spinach

1/2 large cucumber, slices

1 celery stalk

3 romaine leaves

1 inch piece of ginger

DIRECTIONS
