Notes:
When making our smoothies, we decided to use frozen fruit to make them have a thicker consistency. If you like your smoothie sweeter, add in a date, or a teaspoon of maple syrup or Thames River Melons honey.
Instructions
Add all ingredients to blender.
Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until all ingredients are mixed.
Helpful tip: Place your liquid and softer ingredients closer to the blades and the harder ingredients (like frozen blueberries) away from the blades. This will make your smoothie blend a lot easier!
