Smoothie Variations And Recipe Notes
You can easily change the recipe slightly if you need to. For example, maybe you don’t have frozen mango. Or have a different berry?
Plenty of ways to customize it to suit your ingredients or taste preferences.
Feel free to experiment on your own, or try some of my recommendations below:
- Swap The Mango: Bannas and pineapple both work very well in the place of the mango.
- Swap The Berries: If you like deep dark colors, swap the blueberries for blackberries. As for the strawberries, you can use raspberries for example.
- Add More Protein: If you are not vegan, add 1/2 cup of yogurt, but reduce the almond milk to 1/4 cup. You can also use protein powder to increase the protein.
- Boost With Superfoods: You can add chia seeds, flaxseeds, powders, such as matcha powder, or anything else you like or fancy.
My Tips For Making The Perfect Double Berry Smoothie Bowl
- Use Frozen Fruit: Planning ahead and freezing your fruit ahead of time is crucial. Alternatively, you can pre-buy frozen fruit.
- Use a High-Speed Blender: To make this smoothie bowl, you will need a high-speed blender.
- Chill The Serving Bowl: I like to freeze my serving bowl for 5-10 minutes while I am preparing the smoothie. It helps keep the smoothie cooler for longer once it’s served.
- Enhance With Toppings: Add toppings that complement the smoothie bowl. I love adding seeds, nuts, even granola, etc.
- Eat ASAP: As soon as the smoothie bowl is served, eat it immediately, as it will start to thaw. It’s like ice cream!
