• Adjust Texture and Sweetness: Everyone’s palate is different. Feel free to tweak these recipes with more or less sweetener or liquid based on how thick or sweet you like your shakes.
• Give It a Little Extra Time: Thicker ingredients like pumpkin puree or tahini may take a moment to disperse, so give an extra shake or two for the best consistency.
• Keep It Cool: Most of these shakes taste best when chilled - consider throwing some crushed ice in or refrigerating your drink for a bit before sipping.
