FAQ
What blender do you recommend for making smoothies?
We recommend using a high-speed blender like a Vitamix or a Blendtec for making smoothies. These blenders are powerful enough to blend tough ingredients like frozen fruit and leafy greens into a smooth and creamy drink.
Can I use fresh fruit instead of frozen fruit?
Yes, you can use fresh fruit instead of frozen fruit. Just be sure to add some ice cubes to the blender to make the smoothie cold and refreshing.
