2 tsp cinnamon
1 knob fresh ginger (approx 1 tbsp)
1 tsp ground turmeric

Instructions

Put all ingredients into a high-speed blender and blend until smooth (approx. 30-40 seconds). Top with cinnamon, shredded coconut, hemp seeds.
Note: The smoothie is golden in colour if you don't use the spinach, but I like the extra fibre, vitamins and minerals! Therefore, it ends up green. 🙂
