Peanut Free Green Tea Citrus Smoothie
This smoothie is bright, refreshing, and packed with layers of flavor that go way beyond your average green blend. The combination of brewed green tea, fresh citrus juices, and frozen banana creates a naturally creamy base with a zippy, tropical edge that feels genuinely energizing. Baby spinach sneaks in a serious nutrient boost without taking over the flavor ā once it's fully blended, you'd never guess it was there. A little freshly grated ginger ties everything together with just enough warmth to make each sip interesting. Every single ingredient in this recipe is naturally free from peanuts and peanut derivatives, so there's no label-scanning or cross-contamination stress to worry about. Chilling the tea before blending is a smart step that keeps the color vivid and the texture silky smooth. Serve it immediately with a squeeze of lime for a drink that looks as good as it tastes.
