• ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
• ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

A PROMiXX blender is a great way to guarantee quick and fuss-free smoothies. With a twist-to-pulse single-speed blending mechanism, it keeps things simple: no guesswork, no bulky equipment, and no time wasted. Plus, the ability to switch from blending mode to a sleek, drink-from-the-bottle setup makes cleanup a breeze. Just blend, attach the lid, and you’re on your way to enjoying your Thanksgiving-inspired treat.

A. Absolutely! If you prefer fresh pumpkin, you’ll need to roast and purée it first. Cut a pumpkin into chunks, roast it in the oven until tender, and then blend it until smooth. Make sure to cool the purée before adding it to your smoothie.

A. No problem! You can use fresh bananas instead. However, the frozen bananas add creaminess and chill to the smoothies, so if you use fresh, consider adding extra ice to keep the texture thick and frosty.

A. Cleaning is quick and easy. Rinse the bottle and blade with warm water immediately after use to prevent residue from sticking. For a deeper clean, add a small drop of dish soap, fill the bottle halfway with water, reattach the blade, and blend for a few seconds. Then rinse thoroughly and let it air dry. Obviously be very careful when handling the blade to avoid injury.

A. Definitely! You can portion out the dry and solid ingredients (like pumpkin, cranberries, or spices) into freezer-safe bags or containers for quick assembly. When you’re ready, just dump them into the PROMiXX blender, add the liquid, and blend.

A. Yes! These smoothies are made with natural ingredients and can easily be adjusted to suit a child’s taste. If a recipe feels too tangy (like the Cranberry Smoothie), you can reduce the tartness by adding extra banana or honey for sweetness.

A. Absolutely! While vanilla protein powder complements the pumpkin pie flavors well, you can use unflavored, cinnamon, or even a pumpkin-spice-flavored powder if you have it. Just make sure it blends smoothly with the other ingredients.

A. You can use any milk or milk alternative you prefer - dairy milk, soy milk, coconut milk, cashew milk, or even plain water. Each will bring its own unique flavor and texture to the smoothie.

A. Yes, frozen cranberries work perfectly and can make your smoothie even colder and thicker. If you’re using fresh cranberries, you might want to add a few ice cubes to keep the drink chilled.

A. Absolutely! The beauty of smoothies is their flexibility. If you love bolder flavors, add a pinch more cinnamon or nutmeg. If you’re new to these spices, start small and adjust to taste.
