3 Secret Tips for the Best Flavor and Consistency

Frozen bananas and strawberries and fridge cold temperature milk or plant based milk will give you the best consistency and keep your drink nice and cold. Nobody likes a room-temperature smoothie!
If your smoothie is lacking flavor, try adding some more strawberries, bananas or a natural sweetener such as honey, agave nectar or maple syrup.
Any kind of milk or plant based drink works. Even if you’re a fan of regular milk, I definitely recommend trying out coconut milk or almond milk for a different kind of kick to your drink!
