Strawberry Blueberry Smoothie Substitutions
This recipe is flexible and easy to customize:
- Milk options: You can swap orange juice for almond milk or oat milk
- Fruit: Use frozen fruit instead of fresh for a thicker smoothie
- Protein: Skip protein powder and use Greek yogurt (if not dairy-free)
- Seeds: Swap chia seeds for hemp seeds or ground flaxseed
- Creaminess: Add extra banana or a spoon of peanut butter. Careful though, this will add extra sugar and calories!
Smoothie Making Tips & Tricks
Use a high-speed blender: Especially important for ice and frozen fruit. If you’re a texture person, this is one of those times where a high quality blender really make a difference.
Use frozen berries or a frozen banana for a thicker, colder texture
Start with less liquid and add more as needed
Turn this into a bowl by reducing liquid and topping with fruit and seeds
These flavors also work beautifully as tasty treats like smoothie popsicles
Storage & Freezing
This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh, but you do have options if you want to store or make ahead:
- Refrigerator: Best enjoyed fresh, but can be stored up to 4-8 hours in an airtight container
- Freezer: Freeze in ice molds or silicone molds. Thaw slightly, then re-blend for best texture.
