📝 Ingredients (1–2 servings)

  Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants.

• 1/4 of a ripe avocado

  Makes the smoothie ultra-creamy and provides healthy fats.

  Soaking makes them easier to blend and digest.

  Add only if more sweetness is needed.

• A handful of ice cubes

  For a refreshing, chilled texture.

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prep Ingredients:

   • If using fresh strawberries, remove stems and rinse.

2. Blend:

   • Add banana, strawberries, avocado, soaked cashews, almond milk, honey, and ice to a high-speed blender.

   • Blend until smooth and creamy, about 30–60 seconds.

3. Taste & Adjust:

   • Taste and adjust sweetness by adding a bit more honey if needed.

   • Add more almond milk to thin or more ice to thicken.

4. Serve:

   • Pour into a glass and enjoy immediately!
