Normally we don’t add ice to our smoothies because we have the frozen fruit on hand which blends better in our opinion. If you only have fresh fruit, add anywhere from ½ to a cup of ice and blend. Now start stock piling and freezing fruit. Want more ideas? Or don’t like a certain ingredient we’ve used? Make your own!
