  • Use unsweetened almond milk, it's low in calories and high in vitamins and minerals, it also gives a good consistency.
  • If you find your smoothie to be too sweet, add a splash of lemon juice.
  • Natural sweeteners like honey and pure maple syrup are great for upping the sweetness.
  • The riper the banana, the sweeter the smoothie!
