Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 tsp moringa powder
  • 2 orange, peeled and segmented medium
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks (150 g)
  • 1 ripe banana, frozen if possible medium
  • 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 cup coconut water (240 ml)
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup optional, to taste
  • 1 tsp lemon juice optional, for extra brightness

Method
 

Blend the Smoothie
  1. Peel the oranges and cut into segments, removing any seeds.
  2. Add coconut water and moringa powder to the blender first so the powder mixes evenly without clumping.
  3. Add orange segments, frozen pineapple, banana, and grated ginger.
  4. Blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds until smooth and no green flecks remain, thick like a milkshake.
  5. Taste and add honey or maple syrup only if the fruit isn't sweet enough on its own.
  6. Pour into two glasses and serve right away for the brightest citrus flavor.

Notes

  • Use fresh ginger, not ground, for brighter flavor and less grit.
  • Measure moringa powder by the teaspoon, not eyeballed, to avoid bitterness.
  • Blend on high for a full minute if using frozen fruit.
  • Taste before adding honey; ripe fruit often makes it unnecessary.
