Notes

Smoothies are best enjoyed fresh, but if you need to store leftovers, keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. The texture may change slightly after refrigeration.

You can freeze the smoothie in ice cube trays and blend the cubes with a bit of water when you’re ready for a quick smoothie.
