It’s hard to be humble with this recipe. It puts a tick in every box. So simple. So much flavour. And so healthy.

Every health influencer loves to populate the benefits of lemon and water. And fair enough. But if you really want to boost your immune system and flush out toxins (plus enjoy clear skin), you need to eat the whole thing. And there is no better way than buried in a smoothie, complimented by the sweetness of coconut flavoured protein and coconut water. Use vanilla protein powder if you can’t find a clean coconut flavoured powder.

And let’s shove in two cups of spinach to really amplify the antioxidants. If you can manage to make spinach and lemon part of your daily diet, you can’t be unhealthy. It’s actually not possible.
