-
Add Honey and Liquids: Drizzle the honey over the fruit and add the ice and water (or coconut water).

Notes
Protein Boost: Add a scoop of plant-based protein powder or Greek yogurt to make this smoothie more filling.

Dairy-Free: Use coconut yogurt or almond milk instead of dairy-based yogurt for a dairy-free version.
