Mild, fruity and sweet with only a faint green note; smooth and medium thick.
Apple, spinach and banana is one of the most common green smoothie combinations and a good entry point. Baby spinach has a very mild flavour compared with kale or older spinach, and the sweet fruit covers most of its grassy taste. The apple adds juiciness and fibre, the banana a creamy body. Water keeps it light. It makes a simple breakfast or a snack between meals.
Only slightly. Baby spinach is mild, and the apple and banana dominate.
