Instructions
-
In a high speed blender, add the spinach, water, pineapple, cucumber, and lemon juice. Blend on high until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. If ingredients are getting stuck and not blending, use your tamper to push them down and get them moving. Adjust to taste with more pineapple as desired. Store in 1 large jug or 4 small jars with lids.

Enjoy as is or strain to remove the pulp (I like to keep it in for extra fiber)!
