Expert Tips
- Serve Right Away: This easy Banana Strawberry Smoothie With Almond Milk should beenjoyed right away. If you try to chill it in the refrigerator, this smoothie loses its texture and begins to deteriorate very quickly.
- To Thin - To Thick: The best part about making a homemade smoothie is that it is adjustable to your preference. If it's too thick for you to enjoy drinking, just add a small amount of almond milk. If it's too thin to enjoy drinking, throw in a few frozen pieces of fruit or 1-2 pieces of ice cubes.
- Use Frozen Fruits: Frozen fruits help to keep this smoothie recipe cold, frosty, and have a thick texture. At least 12 hours prior, chop the bananas and freeze them. I do keep frozen bananas (in a freezer bag) in the freezer on hand, ready to grab when needed.
