Beetroot Smoothie Recipe

This recipe was first featured on our reports about beetroot being able to increase stamina, so here it is again, so that all you endurance athletes can make a beetroot smoothie to give you that edge over the competition. The spinach will give you an additional recovery boost. As with all smoothie recipes, you can modify the portions of each ingredient, although obviously beetroot should remain the key ingredient in this one. Add the following ingredients to your smoothie blender:

  • 1 raw beetroot, peeled and chopped
  • 1 red pepper, deseeded and chopped
  • A large handful of torn spinach leaves
  • 1 teaspoon of freshly chopped root ginger
  • ½ teaspoon lemon juice
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • some crushed ice

Blend the ingredients and then drink immediately. All smoothies should be drunk as soon as possible after preparation to ensure that nutritents are not lost.
