Tips for Success

• Thicker is better: Start with less liquid and add more only if needed.

• Pre-freeze toppings: Cold toppings keep the smoothie colder longer.

• Blend in stages: To keep the texture creamy without over-melting.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) 

Q1. Can I use fresh blueberries instead of frozen?

Yes, but frozen berries give the smoothie that thick, spoonable texture. If using fresh, add a few ice cubes to thicken. 

Q2. Is it dairy-free?

It can be! Just use dairy-free yogurt and milk (like coconut or almond milk). 

Q3. How do I make it more filling?

Add 1–2 tablespoons of oats or a scoop of protein powder to the blender for extra fiber and protein. 

Q4. Can I prepare it ahead of time?

You can blend it in advance and store it in the fridge for a few hours, but it’s best enjoyed fresh so it stays thick and cold. 

Q5. What can I substitute for banana?

Try frozen mango or avocado for creaminess if you’re not a banana fan.
