Notes
Nutrition:
Please keep in mind that the nutrition mentioned here is an estimate based on an online nutritional calculator. It may vary depending on the ingredients you use.
Substitutes:
For the best results, I recommend following this recipe as it is. However, it’s a very diverse recipe so feel free to switch or add any ingredients you like. You can add maple syrup or honey to make it sweeter.
Storage:
You can store any leftover in a mason jar or any jar with a lid. Though it will easily last for 24 hours, I recommend consuming it immediately to reap the maximum benefits of the smoothie. If not, stir the smoothie using a fork or a spoon to mix everything together when you consume it later.
