FAQs

Can I use fresh bananas instead of frozen?

Yes, fresh bananas will work, but the smoothie won’t be as cold or thick. To maintain a creamy texture, consider adding ice cubes or chilling the smoothie before serving.

Is it necessary to peel the avocado before blending?

Yes, always peel and remove the pit from the avocado before blending to avoid any bitter taste or texture issues.
