Notes
Expert Tips
- You can also add some dry fruits, nuts, oatmeal, or granola if desired.
- You can either increase the quantity of bananas or add yogurt if you like the thicker smoothie.
- Use seasonal fruits for the best flavor.
Storage Instructions
- As this smoothie can be prepared in under 5 minutes, you can prepare fresh smoothie and serve. However, if there are leftovers, the smoothie can be stored in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. As this is a milk-based smoothie, it has to be consumed as early as possible, else you run the risk of curdling the milk.
- To make a large batch ahead of time, you can use almond milk (or other plant/nut-based milk) or yogurt and store it in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days. Do not use ice cubes as they will thin down the smoothie as it melts in the refrigerator.
