Instructions

  • Combine all ingredients in a blender. Blend on medium to high speed until smooth and creamy, about 1 minute. Add more water as needed to promote blending.
  • Pour the smoothie into glasses, and enjoy!
  • Leave a rating or review by tapping the stars on this recipe card (above) or in the comments section (at the end of the post)!

Notes

  • Use fresh fruit if you don't have frozen. Using a frozen banana, however, does make the smoothie creamier than using a fresh one.
  • If you want to make this up to 24 hours in advance, keep it in a sealed jar or container in the fridge.
