Notes

Use frozen banana and pre-cooked frozen beet for a colder, thicker smoothie.
Add a scoop of protein powder to turn it into a post-workout drink.
A high-speed blender works best for a smooth finish. Steam beet beforehand if your blender is not strong.
Use pure pomegranate juice with no added sugar for the best flavor and nutrition.
Scrub and chop the beet before blending. If you're using an orange, peel it first.
A frozen banana makes the smoothie thicker and creamier.
Chia or flax seeds are optional but great for adding fiber and healthy fats.
