# Expert Advice:
01 -
- It tastes like vacation in a glass and takes less than five minutes to throw together.
- Frozen fruit means no ice is needed, so the flavor never gets watered down.
- It is naturally vegan, dairy free, and gluten free without sacrificing any creaminess.
02 -
- Frozen fruit is the secret weapon here because fresh fruit will give you a thinner, less creamy result unless you add ice.
- Unsweetened coconut milk keeps the sugar lower, but canned coconut milk will make it thick enough to eat with a spoon.
03 -
- Freeze your overripe peaches and mango in a single layer on a baking sheet before bagging them so they do not clump together in the blender.
- A pinch of salt sounds strange in a smoothie but it wakes up every single flavor in the glass.
