It’s as simple as blending the ingredients below. If you’re in need of something to blend it in, our recommendations of the best smoothie makers will help. Our top option is the Nutribullet Balance, which has built-in scales and connects to an app so you can check the nutritional information of every smoothie you make – helpful since many smoothies contain eye-watering amounts of sugar. There’s nothing wrong with that, of course, although it helps to be in the know so you can adjust what you eat the rest of the day.
