Ingredients

  • 1 cup spinach (the more the better)
  • 1/2 cup diced cucumber
  • Handful of apples and/or pineapples
  • 1/2 fresh-squeezed lemon
  • 8 oz BodyArmor Lyte Coconut or Tropical Coconut

  • 1 tablespoon ginger
  • 2 to 3 ice cubes

Directions

  1. Gather your ingredients.
  2. Cut up the cucumber, apples, and pineapples and place them in the blender.
  3. Add ginger (I just cut off a piece of raw ginger and used that without the skin) and spinach.
  4. Squeeze the juice from half of a lemon, and add the BodyArmor and protein powder. Lastly, add ice.
  5. Blend everything until combined evenly.
  6. Enjoy!
