Note

For a vegan version, use a plant-based milk such as almond, soy, or oat milk instead of dairy milk.

If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more water or milk one tablespoon at a time until desired consistency is reached.

For a sweeter taste, you can increase the amount of sugar slightly or add a ripe banana for natural sweetness and creaminess.

Serve immediately for the best texture, as the ice will melt quickly after blending.
