Peel the frozen banana (if not already pre-peeled) and break it into smaller pieces for easier blending.
Add the frozen banana, frozen mixed berries, and fresh spinach to a blender.
Pour in the unsweetened almond milk and add the Greek yogurt on top.
Sprinkle in the chia seeds and add the peanut butter for creaminess and added protein.
If a sweeter taste is desired, drizzle in the honey or maple syrup.
Toss in the ice cubes to give the smoothie a cool and frothy texture.
Secure the lid on the blender and blend on high speed for about 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
If the consistency is too thick, add a splash more almond milk and blend again.
Pour the smoothie into a tall glass or jar and enjoy immediately.
