Tips:
- For a creamier smoothie, use frozen fruit instead of fresh fruit.
- If you don't have almond milk, you can use another type of milk, such as soy milk, oat milk, or cow's milk.
- To make the smoothie more protein-packed, add a scoop of protein powder.
- If you want a sweeter smoothie, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup.
- For a more refreshing smoothie, add a handful of ice cubes.
- If you are using frozen fruit, let it thaw for a few minutes before blending.
- If you are using fresh fruit, wash it thoroughly before blending.
- Don't overload your blender. If you have too many ingredients, the smoothie will be too thick and difficult to blend.
- Blend the smoothie until it is smooth and creamy. If it is too thick, add a little more liquid.
- Serve the smoothie immediately, or store it in the refrigerator for later.
