Blueberry & cacao smoothie FAQ:

How long does it take to blend the smoothie?

Blending the smoothie typically takes about 1-2 minutes, depending on the strength of your blender. Start on low and gradually increase to high speed until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency.

Can I use fresh blueberries instead of frozen?

Yes, you can use fresh blueberries, but the smoothie may be less thick and cold. You may want to add some ice cubes to maintain the desired chilly texture.

How can I store leftovers of the smoothie?

Smoothies are best enjoyed immediately. However, if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Shake or stir before consuming, as separation may occur.

What can I substitute for soy milk?

You can substitute soy milk with any plant-based milk, like almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk. Ensure the substitute is unsweetened to maintain the flavor balance.

Is there a way to make this smoothie thicker?

To make the smoothie thicker, you can add more avocado, a handful of ice, or an additional tablespoon of chia seeds, which will absorb liquid and thicken the mixture.

Tips:

- Use ripe bananas for added sweetness and a smoother texture.

- Opt for organic blueberries and avocados for the best flavor and nutritional value.

- If you prefer a thicker smoothie, reduce the amount of soy milk or add an extra tablespoon of chia seeds and let the mixture sit for a few minutes before blending.

- For an extra antioxidant boost, consider adding a handful of spinach or kale.

- Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding a natural sweetener, like a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup.

- Chill the smoothie in the refrigerator for a few minutes before serving if you like it extra cold.
