Ingredients
  

1 banana, frozen

1 cup almond milk (or coconut milk)

1 tablespoon turmeric powder

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated

1 tablespoon honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

½ teaspoon cinnamon

½ cup pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)

A pinch of black pepper (helps with turmeric absorption)

Ice cubes (optional, for desired thickness)

Instructions
 

Prepare Your Ingredients: If you haven't already, freeze the banana beforehand for a creamier texture. Grate the fresh ginger and, if desired, chop the pineapple into chunks.

    Combine in Blender: In a high-speed blender, add the frozen banana, almond milk, turmeric powder, grated ginger, honey (or maple syrup), chia seeds, cinnamon, pineapple chunks, and a pinch of black pepper.

      Blend Until Smooth: Blend on high speed for about 30-60 seconds until all ingredients are well combined and the mixture is creamy. If you want a thicker smoothie, add a few ice cubes and blend again.

        Taste and Adjust: Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness or spice level if needed. You can add more honey for sweetness or more ginger for a stronger kick.

          Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass and garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a slice of pineapple on the rim for a beautiful presentation.

            Enjoy: Sip slowly and enjoy the warm, vibrant flavors while benefiting from the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric and ginger.
