Notes

I have a powerful blender that makes everything super liquid, so if I want it thicker I use less milk. If you have an older blender you may need more milk regardless. You know your machine, so blend accordingly.

If you use dates or almonds it might be a good idea to roughly chop them first.

If you are using frozen bananas or other frozen fruit, omit the ice.
Add protein powder for a higher protein smoothie
You can swap peanut butter if you prefer.
Feel free to add other fruits or even some greek yogurt.
