This smoothie is bright, refreshing, and layered with flavor — earthy green tea, sweet banana, zippy citrus, and a little kick of fresh ginger all come together in one gorgeous glass. The frozen banana gives it that thick, creamy texture without any dairy, while the baby spinach blends in so completely you'd never know it was there. Chilling the tea before blending is a small step that makes a real difference, keeping the color vivid and the whole drink tasting clean and fresh. A splash of maple syrup rounds everything out, and you can dial the sweetness or tartness up or down with an extra squeeze of lime. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of grain-based concerns, so there's nothing to second-guess — just whole, simple produce doing all the work. It comes together in under two minutes of active effort once your tea is cold, making it an easy go-to for busy mornings or a midday pick-me-up.

Brew 1 cup of green tea and let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 20 minutes until cold. (You can do this ahead — chilled tea blends more smoothly and keeps the color bright.)
Add the chilled green tea, frozen banana slices, baby spinach, orange juice, lime juice, maple syrup, and grated ginger to a blender.
