Updates

July 5th 2021 I've been making this without matcha, hemp hearts or chia seeds for a while so I removed them from the recipe.

June 4th 2021 I only had half an avocodo on hand today, the mixture is lumpy. I'll remember to save the whole thing next time. :)

June 1st 2021 I love the way the cherry & apricot flavors combine. I can't taste the strawberries but I imagine they add something!

• Added apricots
• Reduced blend times again

May 29th 2021 Tried fresh mango and strawberries

• Added strawberries
• Replaced frozen mango with fresh mango

May 26th 2021 It's much better without the peanut butter

• Removed the peanut butter

May 24th 2021 An improvement! Next time back to 2 tablespoons of peanut butter though.

• Added an avocado and removed a banana
• Added 1/2 cup more water
• Added 1 heaping tsp of turmeric
• Increased peanut butter from 2 tablespoons to 3. (I liked the interaction with the cherry but now it covers the cherry a little too much)
• Reduced blend times
