# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It takes literally five minutes from fridge to glass, which is faster than deciding what to wear.
  • The tropical trio of fruits creates a flavor that feels indulgent but is genuinely good for you.
02 -
  • Adding ice to already frozen fruit creates a texture closer to a frozen margarita than a smoothie, so pick one or the other.
  • A pinch of salt blended in with the fruit amplifies the sweetness without adding any sugar at all.
03 -
  • Peel and freeze your bananas the night before and you will never need ice cubes again, plus the texture becomes almost dessert like.
  • The smoothie tastes sweetest when the banana has plenty of brown spots, so never throw away an ugly banana.
