Put unsweetened almond milk, Medjool date, turmeric, ginger, chia seeds, spinach, and frozen bananas into a blender. Secure lid.
Place ingredients into the blender in the order listed.
Blend until smooth.
Start the blender on LOW speed for 10 seconds. Increase speed to HIGH for a full minute.
Pour smoothie into a cup. Serve immediately.

Pick bananas that have a mostly yellow peel and some brown areas. This is a sign that the bananas are ripe and sweet.
Use fresh, high-quality turmeric powder for the best flavor. Turmeric powder that's old will have a milder flavor.
Omit the sweetener if you prefer less sweet smoothies.
Instead of spinach, you can also use kale. It has an earthier flavor but it's also rich in antioxidants.
For a thicker smoothie, add extra frozen banana. Or add a few ice cubes for an icier drink.
If you want to thin the smoothie, pour a bit of milk into the blender and puree for 10 seconds.
The smoothie will taste best freshly made. However, you can refrigerate leftovers in an airtight jar for 1-2 days.
