Notes

Tips for the Perfect Smoothie

  • Frozen vs. Fresh Strawberries: Frozen strawberries give the smoothie a thicker, frostier texture, while fresh strawberries create a lighter drink. Both work beautifully!
  • Protein Powder Notes: If your protein powder is sweetened, you may not need additional sweeteners. Adjust to your taste preferences.
  • Make It Vegan: Use plant-based protein powder, non-dairy yogurt, and almond, oat, or soy milk for a vegan-friendly version.
