Substitutions and Variations
- You can use fresh berries or frozen berries for this recipe. If you have other fresh fruit on hand, you can throw that in too!
- I like to use coconut yogurt for this recipe but you can choose to use the almond yogurt if you prefer. If you are not dairy free, you could use plain greek yogurt or regular plain yogurt instead. Adding greek yogurt would give this recipe a boost of protein. You can also use vanilla protein powder.
- If you do not like coconut milk, you can substitute almond milk, oat milk, or soy milk instead. If you are not dairy free, you could also use whole milk.
- You can add additional ingredients for more nutrients. I love to use peanut butter, almond butter, cashew butter, hemp seeds, flax seeds, healthy fats, or chia seeds to the mix.
- Spinach-to get in some extra greens.
- If you want a sweeter smoothie, you could add a small amount of maple syrup to the mixture as well.

Expert Tips
- Tip # 1: After blending, you will want to scrap down the sides of your high-powered blender and blend for additional time to fully combine.
- Tip # 2: You can use fresh or frozen berries for this recipe. If you use fresh berries, you can add ice cubes to the blender for a creamy texture or thicker consistency.
- Tip # 3: To make preparation easier, you can bulk measure ingredients and add into storage bags for the freezer so that the measuring is already complete.
