  • Adjust the sweetness to your liking: The amount of honey or agave syrup you add to your smoothie is entirely up to your personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Use frozen fruit for a thicker smoothie: If you want a thicker, creamier smoothie, use frozen fruit instead of fresh fruit. You can also add a scoop of ice to your smoothie for a similar effect.
  • Add a boost of protein: To make your smoothie more filling and satisfying, add a scoop of protein powder or a tablespoon of nut butter.
  • Garnish your smoothie with fresh herbs or fruit: A sprig of mint or a few slices of grapefruit can add a refreshing touch to your smoothie.
