What it is

To prepare, simply combine the contents of the package with your preferred liquid, such as water, milk, or juice, in a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy. You can adjust the amount of liquid to achieve your desired consistency. For a thicker smoothie, use less liquid. For a thinner drink, add more. Some people like to add ice cubes for an extra frosty texture. It can also be used as a base for other blended drinks.
