Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender.
Add the chopped ripe pear, baby spinach, and vanilla extract.
Add the ice cubes and fine sea salt.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds, until completely smooth.
Check consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.
