Witch’s Brew Smoothie
The colour of something just ladled from a cauldron, the taste of sweet apple and banana — you barely notice the spinach. No colouring at all: the spinach does the green, and kiwi adds a little tartness. One blender, five minutes, two glasses of potion.

Method
-
Step 1: Wash the spinach
Rinse the spinach in cold water and shake it dry. Trim any thick stems — they leave fibres the blender won't break down.
-
Step 2: Cut the fruit
Peel the kiwi and banana and cut them into large chunks.
-
Step 3: Spinach first
Put the spinach in the blender with the apple juice. Blend for 20–30 seconds, until the leaves vanish completely — no green flecks in the brew.
-
Step 4: Add the fruit
Add the kiwi and banana and blend for about a minute more, until completely smooth.
-
Step 5: Serve
Pour straight away: within half an hour the spinach darkens and the brew loses its glow.
Tips & variations

Tip
Use a frozen banana for a thicker, colder potion, almost like soft-serve.
-
Variation
Dip the rim of the glass in syrup and then green sugar for 'slime' dripping down the sides.
