- 1 green apple, cored and chopped
- 1 banana
- Juice of 1 lemon

Instructions
- Use the Mini Chopper to finely chop the mint leaves.
- Use the Eco Chop to chop the cucumber and apple into even pieces.
- Press the lemon in the Citrus Press to extract the fresh juice.
- Add the coconut water, spinach, cucumber, and chopped mint to the Eco Chop container.
- Pump vigorously until smooth and fragrant, about 25-30 pumps.
- Add the apple, banana, and lemon juice.
- Continue pumping until the smoothie is completely smooth and vibrant green.
- Pour into a chilled pitcher.
- Serve over ice in stemless wine glasses.
Optional Upgrades:
- Mocktail Presentation: Top with a splash of sparkling water.
- Fresh Garnish: Garnish each glass with a thin cucumber ribbon and a sprig of mint.
- Cocktail-Party Edge: Add 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice.
bonTIPS:
- Chill the pitcher or glasses before serving for a more polished presentation.
- Chop the mint first to release more flavor into the blend.
- Use cold coconut water to keep the smoothie refreshing.
- Serve in clear glasses to highlight the bright green color.
- Make this smoothie up to two hours ahead and refrigerate. Stir gently before pouring. Do not re-blend, since the texture is best when fresh.
