Description
While mixing pineapple, mint, and apple may sound unusual, these flavors balance each other out perfectly. Put this smoothie together in under ten minutes and reap the benefits.
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 ounces black tea kombucha
- 3 mint leaves
- 2 cups frozen pineapple pieces
- 1 cored apple
Instructions
- Peel and slice the apple into smaller pieces. Make sure that no seeds are remaining.
- Using a high-speed blender, pulse the apple and kombucha for 10 seconds.
- Add the pineapple and mint to the blender—process for 30 seconds or until it becomes smooth.
- Pour into a serving glass.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and a circular slice of pineapple. (Optional)
Notes
If you don’t have frozen pineapple, use fresh or canned pineapple as a substitute. You may have to add a handful of ice cubes to maintain the recipe’s texture. Alternatively, add extra ice cubes and add organic pineapple juice with no added sugar.
Green or white tea kombucha can be used instead of black tea. The type of tea will mildly change the smoothie’s flavor, but all are great choices.
If you don’t have mint leaves, experiment with other herbs like basil, marjoram, parsley, rosemary, or tarragon.
