Pistachio Free Green Tea Citrus Smoothie
This vibrant smoothie is a bright, refreshing blend that tastes like a tropical morning in a glass. Chilled green tea forms the base, giving it a subtle earthy depth that plays beautifully against the citrusy punch of fresh orange and lime juice. Frozen banana adds natural creaminess and body without any dairy, while baby spinach sneaks in a gorgeous green color and a boost of goodness you can barely taste. A little freshly grated ginger ties everything together with just enough warmth to make each sip feel alive. Every single ingredient in this recipe is naturally free from tree nuts, so there's zero label-reading stress ā just whole, clean produce and pantry staples you likely already have on hand. Maple syrup lets you dial the sweetness up or down to your liking, and a squeeze of extra lime at the end keeps it tasting fresh and bright. Blend it up, pour it into two glasses, and get ready to make this a regular part of your morning routine.
