Two kinds of dark berries turn this smoothie a deep purple, so nobody will guess there is spinach in it. The banana makes it creamy and sweet enough without added sugar.

Fruity and berry-tart with a creamy banana body; the spinach is barely noticeable.
This is a classic way to hide greens in a smoothie: dark berries completely cover the colour and most of the flavour of baby spinach. Blueberries and blackberries owe their deep colour to anthocyanins, natural plant pigments, and they bring a pleasant tartness. The banana adds creaminess and natural sweetness and is known for its potassium.
The smoothie is fully plant based and works well for breakfast, as a snack after sport or as a first green smoothie for children.
Hardly. The dark berries and banana cover its mild flavour.
