How To Customize This Smoothie
There are so many changes you can make to this recipe, that may better suit your taste, or possibly ingredients that you have that my recipe doesn’t contain.
Here are the options:
- For a strawberry banana lime smoothie, add 1/2 ripe banana sliced to your blender as an addition with the other ingredients.
- The lime can be replaced for lemon instead.
- You can replace the strawberries altogether and use a different berry. Raspberries can be a great replacement.
- For more flavor and nutrition, instead of using plain water, use coconut water or dairy-free milk.
- If you want to achieve a stronger tasting tropical flavor, consider adding a bit of mango or pineapple. 1/4 cup is plenty!
- For a cocktail drink, add a couple of shots of white rum, it works so well with the fruity taste of this smoothie.
How To Store This Berry Smoothie
Since the smoothie contains frozen fruit, it doesn’t store very well.
However, once the smoothie is blended, make sure you refrigerate it immediately.
I use those gym style water bottles to transfer the blended smoothie, because the lid closes tightly.
Once the smoothie is transferred, refrigerate it, and consume the smoothie within 24 hours, ensuring you shake it well before consumption!
