Banana is added to bulk up the smoothie and adds natural sweetness, you could also use half avocado but will need to add a sweetener.

What other liquids I could use?

Coconut water, plain water, thinned yogurt, milk

How can I increase the protein?

Add protein powders, nut butters, chia seeds etc

How long it can be stored?

I would recommend not to store the smoothie for a long time as it can turn brown. You could freeze the fruit in individual packs and blend them when you are ready to consume

Will I taste the greens?

Absolutely, not. Spinach is a very mild green leafy vegetable and you hardly taste the greens.
