Ingredient Notes and Substitutes

  • Spinach leaves: You can use any green leafy vegetables such as kale. You can also use frozen spinach.
  • Banana: This smoothie is best if you use a frozen banana. I love using frozen banana to boost the sweetness and creaminess in my smoothie recipes, including my Carrot Smoothie, Peach Smoothie and Tropical Smoothie.
  • lemon Juice: This can be substituted for lime juice
  • Water: If you want a sweeter smoothie this can be substituted for apple juice.

Top Tips

Here is how you can make this feijoa smoothie perfectly every time!

  • Frozen banana: Frozen banana adds a creamy texture to smoothies and as feijoa flesh has a grainy mouthfeel using a frozen banana makes this smoothie taste its best.
  • Acid: Adding a little acid in the form of lemon or lime juice will really enhance the flavour of this smoothie.
