FAQ

what's the best type of avocado to use? – its best to use a ripe avocado cause its super creamy and makes the smoothie extra smooth.

can i swap low-fat milk for another milk? – yeah you can use almond milk or even soy milk if you want a different taste, just remember it might change the flavor a bit.

should i use fresh or frozen blueberries? – either works fine, but frozen blueberries can chill your smoothie even more without needing extra ice.

can i add a bit of sweetener? – sure, if you like it sweeter you can stir in some honey or a bit of maple syrup, just add to your taste.

Avocado Blueberry Smoothie Recipe Substitutions and Variations

If ya dont have a ripe avocado, you can swap in a banana for that creamy texture
Instead of low-fat milk, try unsweetened almond milk or any other plant based milk for a similar taste
If you cant get blueberries, strawberries or raspberries can work just as well
No ice cubes? Use frozen fruit chunks or make sure your ingredients are really cold before blending

Pro Tips

1. Make sure your avocado is properly ripe; if it’s too firm it may not blend well and too mushy might make your smoothie taste off.
2. For an even smoother drink, you can chill your blueberries and milk in the fridge before using them, that way you don’t need as many ice cubes.
3. If you want a little twist on the flavor, try adding a pinch of salt or even a tiny bit of honey which can bring out the sweetness in the blueberries and counteract the avocado’s creaminess.
4. Use a high-powered blender if you can because it really helps break down the fruit bits; if chunks still remain after blending, give it another short burst just to smooth it out completely.
