This glowing green smoothie is versatile and can be made with either fresh or frozen ingredients. The leafy greens and antioxidant ingredients make this gut detox smoothie a fitting option for the servings of fresh veggies and fruit–no matter what day of the week it is.

Green smoothie recipes just like this one (and Spinach Avocado Smoothie) are perfect for post-workout meals, light snacks and meals, and breakfast to keep you charged for the morning. 7-day smoothie detox diet plans are great when you want to enjoy gluten-free, vegan, fiber-rich, and flavorful ingredients- all in one meal!

You can make this glowing smoothie even more flavorful and rich by adding organic crunchy cacao nibs, leafy micro-greens, and more.

Meal Prep

Just measure the ingredients and place them in ziplock bags or jars to stick in the freezer to save. All you need is to blend them when you want a quick breakfast smoothie or a healthy pick-me-up.

If you know you are not going to get around to using your leafy greens, then you can freeze them for detoxifying cleansing smoothies such as this one.

Kiwi: One cup of peeled and diced kiwi contains 167 grams of Vitamin C. It is a great natural source of potassium and citrus! Green kiwis are detoxifying and naturally rich in fiber.

Pineapple: Freshly diced pineapple is a great natural sweetener that is plentiful in fiber, Vitamin C, and even aids in natural weight loss. Pineapple is rich in antioxidants and can help with digestion.

Green Apple: Crispy, green fresh apples are high in phytonutrients, vitamins A and C, fiber and are great to enjoy daily. One green apple contains close to five grams of fiber.

Spinach: Leafy spinach is naturally high in iron and anxiotidants which makes this a detoxifying ingredient for this smoothie recipe. Organic spinach leaves contains close to five grams of iron in addition to protein, fiber, calcium, and vitamins A and E.

Other Ingredients

Mint: Fresh mint is aromatic and contains calcium, Vitamin A, beta carotenes, iron, and can naturally aid in digestion. Fragrant mint leaves are great for this green smoothie and provide subtle flavors of mint.

Water: Chilled purified water or coconut water allows this smoothie to not be super thick but smooth instead. Coconut water is rich with electrolytes and is a great source of hydration and potassium.

How To Make Green Detox Smoothie?

Expert Tips

Feel free to use fresh or frozen ingredients. If you would like a thicker colder smoothie, then use frozen fruits and veggies.
For the best results, be sure to use a good quality, high-speed blender so the smoothie is perfectly blended.
Use four to five small ice cubes for this smoothie if you would like it to be a little cooler. I only add a small number of ice cubes when I am making this smoothie with fresh ingredients(not frozen).
Do not use a lot of ice cubes for this smoothie or they will water the ingredients down.
