Notes
Tip: For an extra creamy texture, freeze the avocado chunks beforehand.
For a sweeter smoothie, feel free to add a banana or a splash of honey. If you’re looking to make it more refreshing, try adding a handful of spinach or kale.
Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 24 hours, but keep in mind that the color may change slightly due to oxidation.
