TIPS

  • Use frozen cherries or banana slices for a thicker, colder smoothie without ice.
  • Adjust the sweetness by adding a drizzle of honey or agave syrup if desired.
  • Add a scoop of your favourite protein powder for an extra boost of protein.

VARIATIONS

  • Add a handful of spinach or kale for extra nutrients without significantly altering the flavour.
  • Substitute almond butter with peanut butter or cashew butter for a different nutty taste.
  • Include a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds for added fibre and omega-3 fatty acids.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Fridge: Store any leftover smoothie in a sealed jar in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking.
  • Freezer: Pour the smoothie into ice cube trays and freeze. Blend the cubes with a splash of almond milk later for a refreshing drink.
