- Add a small amount of stevia, honey or other sweetener, if desired
- For a thicker smoothie, add some ice cubes before processing
- Swap out the berries for other ones such as blueberries, blackberries or a mixture of berries
- Not a fan of banana? Try using frozen mango or pineapple instead
- Try adding a small amount of chia seeds, flaxseeds or hemp seeds for an extra boost
- If you have a favourite protein powder, add a small scoop to the smoothie
- Turn your smoothie into a smoothie bowl by using less liquid and/or more frozen fruit to make the smoothie extra thick and creamy
- Add a handful of greens such as kale, or spinach
- Try adding a spoonful of almond butter or peanut butter
- Instead of almond milk, try using your favourite milk, coconut milk or water
- Try using 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of plain Greek yoghurt for a creamier smoothie
- For a chocolate taste, add a small scoop of cocoa powder and top with cacao nibs
Smoothie without Seeds
To enjoy a raspberry smoothie without seeds, process the milk with the raspberries and strawberries. Then push this mixture through a fine mesh sieve. What you will get will look more like a juice. Add this back to the blender and add the rest of the ingredients and process. Compost or give the seeds to the chickens.
Storing Smoothies
Smoothies are made to be enjoyed immediately.
If you can’t enjoy immediately, the smoothie mixture can be refrigerated for a few hours, though it may separate. Just shake or mix before enjoying.
