Blend the smoothie on high speed for about 1-2 minutes, or until all ingredients are well combined and smooth. The exact time may vary based on your blender.

Can I substitute the whey protein powder?

Yes, you can substitute whey protein powder with plant-based protein powder or collagen powder, depending on dietary preferences and needs.

How do I store leftover smoothie?

If you have leftover smoothie, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a good shake or blend again before consuming, as separation may occur.

What if the smoothie is too thick?

If the smoothie is too thick for your liking, you can add a little more orange juice and blend again to achieve your desired consistency.

What pan size should I use if making a larger batch?

- Adjust the sweetness by adding a little honey or agave syrup if preferred.

- Ensure the protein powder you use complements the flavor of your fruit ingredients.
