Notes
- Storage & Yield
- Store: This drink does not store well because it starts to separate and the color starts to degrade after 30 to 60 minutes. It's best made fresh just before serving.
- Yield: The recipe as written makes 1 large glass or 2 smaller servings. The nutrition was calculated for 1 large smoothie. The recipe can be easily doubled or tripled to make enough for a larger group.
