Ingredients
- 1 ripe avocado, peeled and pitted
- 1 ripe banana
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1 1/2 cups almond milk (unsweetened)
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)

Helpful Tips
- For a thicker smoothie, use frozen berries or add a handful of ice cubes before blending.
- If you prefer a dairy-free option, use any plant-based milk like oat milk or soy milk instead of almond milk.
- This smoothie can be turned into a smoothie bowl by reducing the almond milk and topping it with granola, chia seeds, and more fresh fruit.
- Feel free to experiment with other fruits like mango or pineapple for a tropical twist.
Storage Instructions
This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh; however, you can store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking.
Serving Suggestions
