Notes
- The amount of almond milk really depends on your preference for thickness. You will need enough to allow your blender to blend the ingredients - if you don't have enough it will not be able to. I find that 3/4 cup makes my smoothies a little more liquid than I like, so I usually start with less and then add more if I need to.
