Ingredients
Red Smoothie Shot
- 4 strawberries
- ¼ cup chopped beets raw or roasted
- 1 tsp lemon juice 5 mL
- 1 tsp honey 5 mL
Orange Smoothie Shot
- ½ carrot peeled and grated
- 1 tsp fresh grated ginger 5 g
- 1 tsp honey 5 mL
- Pinch ground turmeric
Yellow Smoothie Shot
- ½ banana
- 2 tsp fresh grated ginger 10 g
- 1 tsp lemon juice 5 mL
- Pinch ground turmeric
Green Smoothie Shot
- 1 cup fresh spinach 30 g
- 1 tsp fresh grated ginger 5 g
- 1 tsp lemon juice 5 mL
- 1 tsp honey 5 mL
Instructions
- Blend: Choose which smoothie shot you want to make, then add its ingredients to a blender, along with 1 or 2 tablespoons of water. Blend until smooth, adding a touch more water as needed to get things moving.
- Strain (Optional): If making the red or yellow smoothie, serve fresh from the blender. If making the orange or green smoothie, you may want to strain it through a fine mesh sieve. Pour juice into a shot glass and serve.
Notes
Make it in bulk by simply making four times the recipe.
Store for up to 3 days tightly sealed in the refrigerator. The fibers tend to seperate and form a single layer as the juice is stored. Simply give it a stir before enjoying again.
