Notes

  • Frozen Fruit: For a thicker smoothie, always use frozen pineapple and mango. You can even freeze the avocado to make it extra creamy.
  • Sweeteners: The smoothie is naturally sweet from the fruit, but you can add a natural sweetener like maple syrup, agave, or stevia to taste.
  • Vegan Option: This recipe is already vegan-friendly if you choose a plant-based milk and skip honey. Use maple syrup or agave as a sweetener.
  • Make it Protein-Packed: Add a scoop of protein powder (pea protein or hemp are great options) for a post-workout boost.
  • Superfood Boost: Add chia seeds, flax seeds, or a teaspoon of spirulina for extra nutrition.
  • Storage: The smoothie is best enjoyed immediately, but you can store leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours. For longer storage, pour leftovers into ice cube trays and freeze for a chilled treat later.
