Can I make this recipe ahead of time?

Yes. I often prep it in the morning before the girls wake up, then finish it right before dinner. Store in a sealed jar in the fridge and stir well before serving.

Is the protein powder necessary?

No. It adds protein and makes the smoothie more filling. If you do not want to use protein powder, try a tablespoon of nut butter or an extra scoop of collagen peptides.

Can I use fresh raspberries instead of frozen?

Yes. Fresh raspberries work fine, but you may want to add ice or a frozen banana to keep the drink chilled and creamy.

Is this smoothie suitable for toddlers?

It can be. Adjust the portion size and avoid adding any sweeteners. If your child has allergies, omit the protein powder or use a child-safe brand.

Can I make this dairy-free?

Absolutely. The coconut milk base is dairy-free. Choose plant-based protein powders and toppings to keep it vegan-friendly.
