Tips & Notes
- Scrape the skin off the ginger with the edge of a spoon and slice it into thin coins across the fibers so it blends without stringy bits. For more heat, grate in a little extra at the tasting step, since a new chunk will not break down in 10 to 15 seconds.
- Your liquid choice changes the result: water keeps the pineapple and ginger brightest but blends icier, while canned coconut milk makes it richest. If you use almond milk or any flavored milk, pick one labeled gluten-free.
- If you make the smoothie bowl, top it with granola labeled gluten-free. Granola is usually built on oats, which pick up gluten in the field and the mill unless the package is labeled gluten-free.
