Step 4: Pour into a glass or bowl, add toppings if desired, and enjoy immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to freeze the fruit in advance?

No, it’s not required, but frozen fruit creates a colder, frosty smoothie. If you haven’t frozen the fruit, add ice to chill and thicken the drink.

How do I make my smoothie thick enough for a smoothie bowl?

Use all frozen fruit and add liquid slowly. Stop when the mixture reaches a thick, scoopable consistency suitable for toppings.
