Helpful Tips
For beginners, don’t worry too much about exact measurements. Feel free to adjust the quantities based on your taste preferences. You can also use frozen banana or blueberries for an even frostier drink. For an extra boost, add a tablespoon of chia seeds or a splash of vanilla extract.
Storage Instructions
If you have leftovers, store the smoothie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a good shake or stir before drinking.
Ingredient Substitutions
If you don’t have Greek yogurt, you can substitute it with regular yogurt or a dairy-free alternative. Cow milk, soy milk, or even coconut milk can replace almond milk based on availability and taste preferences.
Pairings
This delightful smoothie pairs wonderfully with a light breakfast like avocado toast, a side of mixed nuts, or a freshly baked muffin. It’s also a great addition to a brunch spread.
