A breakfast smoothie is a nutritious drink made by blending a variety of ingredients including fruits, vegetables, yogurt, or milk, and sometimes added protein sources like nut butter or protein powder. It's a quick and easy option for a healthy breakfast.
Smoothies became popular in the United States in the 1960s and have roots in fruit juices and nutritional supplements that were commonly consumed for health benefits.
The taste can vary widely depending on the ingredients used; generally, it is sweet and fruity, with a creamy texture from yogurt or alternative milk.
Banana
A sweet, creamy fruit that adds natural sweetness and a thick texture to smoothies.
Spinach
A nutritious leafy green that is often used in smoothies for added vitamins and minerals without altering the taste significantly.

Almond Milk
A nut-based milk alternative that is often used to add creaminess and flavor, while being lower in calories than whole milk.

A natural sweetener that can be added for extra sweetness, if desired.
