# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It tastes like a vacation in a glass, but comes together in the time it takes to find your blender.
  • Completely vegan and dairy-free without tasting like you're missing anything at all.
  • The lime juice is the secret weapon that keeps it from feeling cloying or too sweet.
02 -
  • Don't skip pre-freezing your strawberries because fresh frozen ones won't give you that creamy, ice-cream-like texture that makes this smoothie different from a regular fruit shake.
  • If your banana is overripe (brown spots), it's actually perfect here because it adds natural sweetness and richness that a pale banana can't match.
03 -
  • Chill your glasses in the freezer while you blend so the smoothie stays cold longer and feels special the moment you pour it.
  • Squeeze the lime juice fresh, because bottled lime juice tastes synthetic in something this simple and pure.
