Notes

The order you add your ingredients can make a difference in how easily your smoothie will blend. You want the liquid at the bottom, nearest the blade
Depending on the size of your blender you may have to add the spinach in stages. For a smaller blender add about ¼ of the spinach, blitzed it and then added the remaining spinach before blending again.
You can use milk of choice, dairy and dairy-free milk both work.
