Notes
- Use frozen wild blueberries for the best texture and deeper flavor; they also keep the smoothie cold without ice.
- If using fresh blueberries, add a handful of ice to thicken.
- Choose a whey protein that blends smoothly to avoid a chalky texture.
For dairy-free, use almond milk or oat milk and a plant-based protein powder. - Adjust sweetness with more or less Truvia, or use liquid stevia.
- Best enjoyed immediately, but can be stored in the fridge for up to 24 hours (shake or re-blend before drinking).
