❓ Q&A Section
Q1: What does this smoothie taste like?
It has a naturally sweet and creamy flavor. The bananas and strawberries add sweetness, blueberries give a mild tang, and avocado adds a buttery richness without overpowering the fruitiness.
Q2: Can I replace the milk?
Yes! Almond milk, oat milk, coconut milk, or even yogurt works well. For a thicker smoothie, use ½ cup milk + ½ cup yogurt.

Not required, but highly recommended. It adds creaminess, healthy fats, and keeps the smoothie filling for longer.
Q4: Can I add protein?
Absolutely. Add 1 scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder. It blends perfectly with these fruits.
Q5: How can I make it colder and thicker?
Use frozen bananas or frozen berries, or add extra ice cubes. You can also add a spoon of Greek yogurt.
Q6: Is this smoothie good for breakfast?
Yes! It’s rich in fiber, antioxidants, potassium, and healthy fats. It provides long-lasting energy and supports digestion.
