Ингредиенты
- Here are some other fun tips for making this ginger pear green smoothie:
- Replace regular ice with nut milk ice, which we learned how to make last winter -- it lends just a hint of nutty flavor
- Use frozen chopped spinach in place of fresh
- Swap bottled chopped ginger for the fresh, if you're really pressed for time
- Make your smoothie by screwing a mason jar onto your blender. You can drink directly from the jar and save yourself some clean up time
