Notes
Blender Choice: Using a Vitamix or other high speed blender will make making this smoothie a breeze. It can make quick work of frozen ingredients ensuring that you have a creamy smoothie every time. If you don't have one, you may need to add a bit more liquid to get everything going.
To freeze leftovers: Pour the leftovers directly into the jar leaving a little space at the top. Place the lid on top, tighten, but not too much and pop it into the freezer.
To defrost: Take off the metal lid and microwave for 1 minute. Give the smoothie a stir, pop on a silicone lid and enjoy. Alternatively, you can let the frozen smoothie defrost on the counter or in a lunch bag.
