❓ Green Smoothie Q&A
❔ Can I make this ahead of time?
Yes! Store in an airtight bottle in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Shake well before drinking.

❔ What if I don’t have almond milk?
You can substitute with:
- Oat milk
- Coconut milk
- Soy milk
- Even plain water (if you’re okay with less creaminess)
❔ Can I freeze this smoothie?
You can freeze it in ice cube trays, then re-blend with a little liquid for a quick smoothie later.
❔ How many calories does it have?
Approximately 220–250 calories per serving, depending on your exact ingredients and portion sizes.
❔ Can I use frozen fruit?
Yes! Frozen pineapple and even frozen banana will make your smoothie extra cold and creamy—no ice needed!
❔ Is it good for weight loss?
Yes, it’s low in calories, filling from the fiber and fats, and naturally sweet—great for curbing cravings while nourishing your body.
🧊 Pro Tip:
For ultra convenience, pre-pack smoothie ingredients (except the liquid) in freezer bags. Just toss into the blender with almond milk when you’re ready!
