Notes:

  • I own a Vitamix which has s a “smoothie” setting, however, any high-speed blender will do with the right amount of patience haha!
  • For additional smoothie tips and tricks Vitamix has a great post on their website located here.
  • Enjoy smoothies as soon as possible for optimal nutrients, however, you can transfer to an airtight jar or container for up to one day.
