Notes
Fresh or frozen berries can be used. Let frozen fruit thaw for about 10 minutes before blending it up.
If you are using fresh fruit, add a cup of ice cubes to the blender to keep your smoothie cold and to add some thickness. (Not needed if using frozen fruit.)
If your smoothie is too thin: Add something to thicken it. A banana, Greek yogurt, chia seeds, oats and avocado can all help to add more texture to the smoothie.
If your smoothie is too thick: An easy way to lighten it up is to add more liquid, such as orange juice or milk.
