Ginger Colada Green Smoothie: "A Piña Colada with a Gingery Kick"
Experience the sweet and spicy flavors of the Caribbean in ten minutes flat, even if you’re stuck at your desk. Loaded with nutritious ingredients like fresh ginger, kale, spinach, and hemp seeds, this clean, green smoothie is the perfect way to jumpstart your morning. Dana Shultz, author of Minimalist Baker’s Everyday Cooking, makes this refresher almost every day. She calls it a ginger colada because it reminds her of a piña colada with a gingery kick. Ginger Colada Green SmoothieNotes:For spinach and kale, Shultz likes to buy hers pre-washed and bagged and stored in the freezer. That way it stays fresh and is always available when she’s craving a smoothie. It also helps keep the mixture colder and slightly creamier.Reprinted from Minimalist Baker’s Everyday Cooking by arrangement with Avery, a member of Penguin Group (USA) LLC, A Penguin Random House Company.
