Notes
This smoothie is versatile and can be made with any combination of fruits. Consider using frozen fruits for a thicker texture and chilled drink. You can also substitute yogurt with almond milk or another dairy alternative. Add some spinach or kale for an extra nutrient boost!
For a protein boost, include a scoop of protein powder or nut butter. If you like it sweeter, consider adding honey or agave syrup.
