Ingredients
- 2 cups of Spinach

- ½ cup frozen Pineapple
- 2 Kiwis (peeled and chopped)
- 1 tbsp Baobab Powder (superfruit magic!)
- 2 tsp Cordyceps CS-4 Powder
This smoothie is basically a tropical vacation in a glass, with a leafy green twist to keep things fresh and fab.
Whether you’re a smoothie newbie or a flexitarian flexing your fruit muscles, this blend’s got all the immune-boosting plant power you need—no monkey business!
For an added boost of flavor and nutrition, try pairing this smoothie with zesty lemon coriander falafel for a quick and vibrant meal.
How to Make It
Whipping up this Tropical Fruits Immune Boosting Smoothie is about as easy as convincing a banana to join a fruit bowl party—just toss everything in and blend away! Grab your 2 cups of fresh spinach, 1 cup of almond milk, and 1 cup of orange juice to start the green and citrusy base.
Then, peel and chop those 2 kiwis—because who doesn’t love a little fuzzy fruit fun? Add the ripe banana (or if you’re feeling fancy and a bit adventurous, Indigo Herb’s Banana Powder is your shortcut to smooth sweetness).
Don’t forget the half cup of frozen pineapple, which brings that tropical chill that’s basically a mini-vacation in your blender.
Now, sprinkle in 1 tablespoon of baobab powder and 2 teaspoons of Cordyceps CS-4 powder—because superheroes don’t just wear capes, sometimes they come in powder form.
Once your blender is packed with all these goodies, hit that blend button until you get a smooth, creamy concoction that looks like liquid sunshine.
Pour it into your favorite glass (bonus points if it’s one that cheers you up) and voila! You’ve got yourself a deliciously vibrant, plant-powered immune booster that tastes like a tropical getaway with a side of wellness. Cheers to blending your way to better days!
For an extra creamy texture that complements the tropical flavors, try using almond milk as your plant-based milk choice.
Bonus Tips
- Feeling fancy? Top your smoothie with a sprinkle of chia seeds or shredded coconut for that extra “I woke up like this” vibe.
- Not a fan of almond milk? Swap it out for oat or coconut milk and keep your smoothie as chill as your plant-based lifestyle.
- Want to power up? Toss in a handful of hemp seeds or a scoop of vegan protein powder—because superheroes drink smoothies too.
