Creamy Pineapple Cucumber Smoothie

Ingredients: 

1/2 cup sliced cucumber; 1 heaped cup cubed pineapple; 1/2 large ripe, peeled, frozen banana; 1/4 cup light coconut milk; 1/2 cup filtered water; 1 medium lime, zested + juiced; 1 large handful greens (spinach or kale); 2-4 ice cubes

Instructions:

Add cucumber, pineapple, frozen banana, light coconut milk, water, lime zest, lime juice, greens, and ice cubes to a blender and blend on high until creamy and smooth, scraping down sides as needed.

For a thicker smoothie, add more ice. For a thinner smoothie, add more liquid of choice. Taste and adjust flavour as needed, adding more lime juice or zest for acidity/brightness, banana or pineapple for sweetness, coconut milk for creaminess, and greens for more intense green colour.

Serve immediately. Leftovers will keep covered in the refrigerator up to 24 hours, though best when fresh.
