Ingredients:

1 cup packed mint leaves
2 bananas
4 ice cubes
1 tbsp fresh ginger
1 cup pineapple
1–3 cups water

Directions:

Blend all ingredients until smooth and green, making sure there aren’t any fibers from the ginger left unblended…they get in your teeth.

Notes:

Peppermint leaves help your liver by increasing bile flow while breaking down fats and lowering bad cholesterol. Ginger has been proven to prevent diseases associated with the liver as well as cleanse the blood. Health benefits aside, the flavors combine with tropical fruits to make one deliciously fresh drink. Have this one in the morning to start your day off right.
