Frothy Ginger Smoothie – Vegan and Sugar-Free
If you like ginger, you’re going to LOVE this smoothie!
Don’t forget to peel the ginger and chop it a little, too. We also recommend a Vitamix (or other powerful blender) for this smoothie because some other blenders don’t seem to deal with ginger very well and you’ll get stringy bits in your smoothie.
The complete, printable recipe is at the end of this post.
Just combine all of the ingredients in your blender and blend until smooth.
Yes! It’s that easy.
