Green Smoothies

I have been trying to like green smoothies.  I have been trying really hard.  I just do not like them.  Do people really enjoy the taste or are they just saying that so they look like they are being healthy?  Are they really yummy and I'm just doing something drastically wrong?  The last one I tried had the following in it:
  • Almond Milk
  • Peanut Butter
  • Cocoa Powder
  • Frozen Banana
  • Spinach
Sounded pretty good, no?  I have learned that you really don't taste the spinach and the rest of the ingredients are all things I like so I gave it a whirl.

This is what it looked like:
Baby poop Green smoothie in a glass
 
It tasted the way it looks.  Not good.  Hubs and Blueberry both gagged when they tasted it.  I pretended to like it but honestly I thought it was disgusting.  Unless someone can give me tips on how to make green smoothies delicious, my green smoothie days are officially over!

Maybe if it were sweeter - like using chocolate powder (Quik?) instead of just plain cocoa powder? But then it wouldn't be as healthy, I suppose!!
