Guide to Smoothies
Read our Guide to Smoothies to learn our top tips and tricks to perfect smoothies every time + get 100+ smoothie recipes! We also HIGHLY recommend avoiding ice, if possible! Ice also tends to produce a more water-y smoothie, plus, if you can achieve that thick and chilled texture by using nutrient-dense ingredients instead of ice, why wouldn’t you!? Keep a stash of frozen fruit in you freezer at all times or freeze extra berries or fruit that you have at home for DIY frozen fruit. You only need to freeze your fruit for 30-60 minutes for it to be smoothie ready, so no need to worry if you’re just popping your fruit into the freezer now! You’ll be off and running with a delicious smoothie in no time 😀
SPECIFICALLY, FROZEN BANANAS CAN’T BE BEAT
We are big fans of using frozen bananas as a base for many of our smoothie recipes. Not only are bananas cheap, and nutrient-dense, but when they are frozen and then blended, they are SO delicious and creamy! Check out our post on how to freeze bananas for all of the best tips and tricks!
A LITTLE LIQUID AT A TIME, PEOPLE
One of the main tips we give people when making a smoothie is add the recommended amount of liquid a little bit at a time until the smoothie reaches your desired consistency. Adding all of the liquid at once could leave you with a water-y smoothie! You can ALWAYS add more liquid, but can’t take it out!
