Notes

Blender: Use a professional-grade blender for an extra smooth texture if you have one, but a standard blender will work just fine too. If you use a standard blender, run for an additional 30 seconds to 1 minute to make sure everything is as smoothly incorporated as possible.

Storage: This smoothie tastes best when consumed immediately, but it will stay fresh for up to 24 hours in the fridge in a covered container.

For extra protein: Add 1 tablespoon nut butter or a scoop of your favorite protein powder.
