Notes
- With a fairly neutral flavor, almond milk is great in smoothies. Feel free to use other types of milk, like soy milk or hemp milk.
- When freezing your own blueberries, always put them in a single even layer. This will avoid big chunks of berries.
- If your blender isn't very powerful, chop the Medjool date before adding it in.
- Leave out the Medjool date if you want a less sweet smoothie.
- Add a splash of milk if the smoothie is too thick, then blend for 10 seconds.
- You can save leftover smoothie in a glass jar for 1-2 days. The ingredients will likely separate, so be sure to mix it before drinking.
