Tips
- For the freshest flavor, use ripe, in-season mulberries. If fresh aren't available, frozen mulberries work just as well.
- Chill your ingredients beforehand for an extra-cold, refreshing smoothie.
- Use a high-powered blender to ensure a smooth, creamy texture without any fruit chunks.
- For a protein boost, consider adding a scoop of collagen or your favorite protein powder.
- If you're watching sugar intake, replace honey with a natural zero-calorie sweetener like stevia.
- Experiment with toppings like chia seeds or a sprinkle of cinnamon for added nutrition and flavor.
- For best results, drink the smoothie immediately after blending to preserve maximum nutritional benefits.
