Notes
- This smoothie contains about 8 grams of net carbs per serving and makes one large glass.
- Powdered sweetener is used to keep it sugar-free and keto-friendly, but sugar, honey, or maple syrup can be substituted if desired.
- Adjust the thickness by adding more almond milk or using frozen avocado instead of ice cubes.
- Optional add-ins include protein powder, chia seeds, hemp hearts, cinnamon, nut butter, Greek or coconut yogurt, spinach leaves, fresh mint, or coconut cream for richer taste.
- Best served immediately, leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to one day.
