# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It tastes like sunshine in a bowl without any guilt afterward.
  • You can prep it in under ten minutes, even half asleep.
  • The lemon cuts through the sweetness in a way that keeps you coming back for more.
02 -
  • If your blender struggles, let the frozen fruit sit out for five minutes before blending or it'll overheat the motor.
  • Don't skip the lemon zest, the juice alone doesn't give you the same brightness.
03 -
  • Freeze your banana slices on a tray first so they don't clump together in the bag.
  • Use a high speed blender if you have one, it makes the texture unbelievably creamy.
