Tips for Making a Perfect Smoothie

- Serve immediately: This smoothie should be served immediately after making it. If it is stored for too long the flavour and texture will change.
Recipe Q & A
Q: Can I substitute the fresh banana in this recipe for frozen?
A: Not unless the frozen banana is thawed first. Using a frozen banana in this recipe will make the smoothie too thick and it will be difficult to blend.
