Ingredients & Substitutions

Bananas add natural sweetness and creaminess. Frozen berries not only provide a vibrant color but also act as a natural ice, making the smoothie cold and refreshing. Spinach is a great way to sneak in some greens without affecting the taste.

Tips & Notes

  • For a creamier texture, use a frozen banana instead of a fresh one.
  • If you prefer a thicker smoothie, reduce the amount of almond milk.

Recipe Variations

  • Add a scoop of your favorite plant-based protein powder for an extra boost.
  • Incorporate nut butter like almond or peanut for healthy fats and extra flavor.

Storage & Freezing

This smoothie is best enjoyed immediately, but you can store any leftovers in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake well before consuming.

Frequently Asked Questions
