Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Gather all your ingredients: one ripe banana, a cup of frozen cherries, a handful of fresh spinach, and about one cup of almond milk. Prepare any optional add-ins like nut butter or chia seeds.
  2. Add the banana, frozen cherries, spinach, and almond milk into your blender. Secure the lid.
  3. Blend the mixture on high speed for about 30 to 60 seconds until smooth. Scrape down the sides if needed to ensure everything blends well.
  4. Check the consistency. If it's too thick, add a splash more almond milk and blend for an additional 10 seconds.
  5. Pour the smoothie into tall glasses, filling them about three-quarters full. Garnish with whole cherries or chia seeds if desired.
