Notes
Use frozen fruit. If possible, frozen fruit is the best to use because it will give the smoothie a creamier, richer, and thicker texture without the need for ice.
Use a high-powered blender. A high-powered blender is needed when blending frozen fruit and the ice, if needed. These blenders will help the smoothie have a smoother texture.
Blend using the pulse. By pulsing the blender, the frozen fruit can be broken down into smaller pieces. This allows the blades to blend everything together nice and smoothly.
To make the smoothie thicker, add additional frozen fruit or ice until you reach the desired consistency.
To make the smoothie thinner, add water until you reach the desired consistency.
To cut the sweetness, add a splash of lemon juice. The acidity will help balance out the sweetness.
