Substitutions

• Vanilla protein powder — Vanilla protein powder gives this smoothie a good taste, as well as some protein to help you survive throughout the day with energy. If you don't have it, then you can use soy milk. It can also be a vegan alternative; it provides the right amount of protein needed.

• Baby spinach — Baby spinach provides this smoothie with fiber that helps in weight loss. If you don’t have baby spinach or don't like to use it, you can easily substitute it with other leafy green vegetables. It will have the same benefit.

• Berry medley — If you don’t like the berry medley, then you can opt for other fruit medleys like apple, pineapples, and mango or pomegranate, peach, and pears. Almost anything will work well in this smoothie.

Storage

• Smoothies can’t be stored for a long time. I always recommend making a fresh bowl of smoothie when needed but if you want to store it then place it in an airtight container and then keep it in the refrigerator. Make sure to drink the smoothie within 24 hours.

Pro Tips

• For the perfect taste make sure to use high-quality ingredients to make sure fruits are ripe.

• Experiment with different combinations of fruits to add flavor to the smoothie.

• To sweeten the smoothie avoid adding artificial sugar instead add dates or honey in it.
