Description

A quick and delicious fruit smoothie perfect for breakfast, snacks, or post-workout refuels.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup frozen fruit (bananas, strawberries, mango, or mixed berries)
  • 1 cup liquid (almond milk, dairy milk, coconut water, or juice)
  • 1/2 cup greens (optional: spinach or baby kale)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • Ice cubes (optional, for extra thickness)


Instructions

  1. Pour the liquid into the blender first.
  2. Add the frozen fruit on top of the liquid.
  3. Tuck in greens or powders next, then add any nut butter or sweetener.
  4. Start with low speed and pulse 2–3 times to break up large chunks.
  5. Blend on medium-high for 30–60 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  6. Taste and adjust: add more liquid if it’s too thick or sweetener if needed.
  7. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

Notes

Best eaten immediately for optimal texture and flavor. Store in the refrigerator for up to 48 hours if necessary.
