How to Make a Breakfast Fruit Smoothie

Start by gathering your ingredients. Using fresh, ripe fruits is one of the golden rules in smoothie-making. They provide natural sweetness, negating the need for additional sugar.

Next, peel your banana and orange. Slice them into chunks for easy blending.

Place these fruit pieces, along with the diced pineapple, into a blender. The blender's quality does matter, as a high-powered one can blend the fruits to a smoother consistency.

Pour in your almond milk; this not only adds a creamy texture to your smoothie but also provides a non-dairy twist. Those with lactose intolerance or anyone seeking a plant-based alternative can swap regular milk comfortably with this option.

Add your honey or preferred sweetener, but remember, you don't want to overwhelm the fresh flavor of the fruits with too much sweetness. Less is more here.

Toss in a handful of ice cubes, they give your smoothie a refreshing chill. If you want a thicker smoothie, you might even consider freezing your fruits beforehand.

Blend all the ingredients together until you get a smooth, drinkable consistency. You might need to pause and use a spatula to push down any unblended pieces; they can sometimes stick to the blender's sides.

Once you're happy with the consistency, pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately.
