This spinach smoothie is perfectly sweet and creamy. Even if you aren’t a fan of spinach, cooked or raw, you might find that you enjoy this smoothie and are able to stomach the taste just fine. The taste of the spinach is hardly noticeable amongst the vanilla almond milk, Greek yogurt, fresh blueberries and frozen mango.

Ingredients

Spinach smoothie ingredients prepped on wooden background.

This smoothie has a nice combination of fruit and vegetable flavors:

  • vanilla almond milk – the sweetened kind
  • vanilla Greek yogurt – It’s thick and tangy with a hint of vanilla flavor which makes it a great choice for a spinach smoothie.
  • fresh baby spinach – You’re not necessarily going to taste spinach in the smoothie but it’s there to add nutrients and protein.
  • fresh blueberries – I like the smaller blueberries because they seem to have more flavor and a better texture.
  • mango – Chopped and frozen to thicken the smoothie.

How to Make a Spinach Smoothie

  1. Add all of the ingredients to a blender.
  2. Blend on high speed until smooth.

Tip: If you would like it to be thicker, you can add some more frozen mangoes or ice.

Recipe FAQs

Is it OK to put raw spinach in a smoothie?

Yes! I love adding raw spinach to smoothies because it adds freshness but it doesn’t alter the flavor so much. Make sure you clean it first by rinsing with cool water.

Does spinach make smoothies thicker?

While spinach will add some amount of thickness, it’s mostly the frozen fruit and yogurt that will really thicken the smoothie up.
