- Add all the ingredients to your blender.

Variations
- Chia seeds, hemp seeds, or ground flax seeds. I love to use golden flaxseeds because they have a better flavor.
- Almond butter or cashew butter, are great nut butter alternatives if you are allergic to peanuts.
- Unsweetened almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk instead of dairy milk.
- Drizzle pure maple syrup, if you want a sweeter drink.
- 1/4 teaspoon of vanilla extract can add a nice flavor.
- A scoop of your favorite protein powder.
Tips to Make the perfect smoothie
- I sometimes like to rinse my frozen fruit to get off that extra ice and it helps everything blend together more easily.
- If the smoothie is too thick at a splash of milk then blend until smooth.
- Use frozen fruit so your smoothie is as cold and frothy as possible. Avoid using ice cubes because they can water down your drink.

Nope! Yogurt and milk are often used in smoothie recipes to increase their creaminess and to add more fat or protein to the drink. This recipe is made without yogurt and you can skip the milk if you are dairy free and use water or use your favorite plant-based milk instead!
