Vitamix Tips
- Try adding in espresso powder to give this smoothie an extra kick of morning energy. For a protein boost, try adding chia or hemp seeds, or a protein powder of your choice. This is a thin-style smoothie recipe. For a thicker texture, double the amount of iced used or use only 2 cups of milk.
