Instructions

- Process Smoothie: Blend on high until the mixture is smooth and creamy, stopping to scrape down the sides if necessary.

Notes

- You can substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar for a vegan alternative.
- Adjust the amount of almond-coconut milk depending on how thick or thin you prefer your smoothie.
- For extra protein, consider adding a scoop of protein powder or a tablespoon of chia seeds.
