Notes

Always use ripe strawberries for the best flavor. If they're tart, balance with more sweetener. For a thicker smoothie, reduce the liquid slightly. If you have leftovers, store in an airtight container in the fridge and consume within 24 hours. Avoid freezing for best texture. Get creative with your smoothie by adding spinach for a Green Goddess version, using coconut water instead of milk, or mixing in a scoop of protein powder. Don't forget to elevate presentation with colorful straws or garnishes!
