FAQs
Can I use frozen strawberries instead of fresh?
Yes, frozen strawberries work well and can make your smoothie extra cold and refreshing. You may need to add a little more liquid to blend smoothly.
Can I prepare this smoothie in advance?
While you can prepare it ahead, we recommend drinking it immediately after making to enjoy the best taste and maximum nutrients. If stored, keep it refrigerated and consume within 24 hours.
