- 1 medium Fresh Beets
- 1 inch piece Fresh Ginger
- ½ cup Orange Juice
- ½ cup Water
- 2 ripe banana Banana
- ½ cup Frozen Strawberries
- ½ cup Ice Cubes
Place the beets, grated ginger, orange juice, and water into a blender. Blend until smooth, ensuring there are no visible bits of beet or ginger. Then, add the frozen banana and strawberries and blend again until creamy and well combined.
If using a high-powered blender like a Vitamix, add all ingredients at once and blend to achieve a smooth, slushy consistency. Enjoy the smoothie immediately for the best taste and texture, or store leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours, or freeze them in popsicle molds for a later treat.
If you're using a high-powered blender, there's no need to chop the ginger before adding it. However, if you're unsure your blender can fully break it down, consider grating it with a microplane to avoid larger ginger pieces in the smoothie.
Customize your smoothie by adding ingredients that boost nutrition and make it more filling. Try incorporating hemp hearts for plant-based protein, chia seeds, or ground flax for extra omega-3s and fiber. For a creamier texture, you can swap the water for your preferred type of milk.
