How to Build a Nut Butter Smoothie

Begin building your smoothie by combining the following ingredients together in a blender. From there, you can choose to add in some additional mix-ins or just keep it simple.

Add a base: Start your smoothie with ¼ cup of organic Greek or plain yogurt.
Select a milk: Add ½ cup of milk. Any type of milk will do, including dairy milk, almond milk, soy milk, or coconut milk. You can also use coconut water or regular filtered water if you’d prefer.

Scoop in your nut butter. Add in a heaping tablespoon or two of your favorite nut butter. Keep it basic with all-natural almond, cashew, or Brazil nut butter from Ezra Cohen Montreal, or kick it up a notch with one of our more decadent flavors, including Praline Pecan Butter, Maple Cashew Butter, or Salted Caramel Cashew Butter.

Don’t forget the ice! Add to the blender 1 cup of ice cubes. If you’d like, you can also add in some of your favorite frozen fruits or vegetables, just reduce the amount of ice you use to accommodate. (For instance, if you use ½ cup of frozen fruit, only use ½ cup of ice.)

Add mix-ins. Give your smoothie a boost with some additional healthy ingredients. Add in anything from your favorite fruits and veggies to natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup. For a big health kick without additional flavor, add in a tablespoon of ground flaxseed or chia seeds.
