It’s a good idea to taste the smoothie before serving it.
Add additional flavors and ingredients as desired to improve the taste or consistency.
You can add almonds and walnuts, seeds such as linseed and Chia seeds, herbs like vanilla or almond extract, cinnamon, ginger, even cayenne pepper.
You can also add
*1 tablespoon coconut butter (this adds a bit more coconut flavor plus fibers and a little protein)

If you need extra protein, add some protein powder!
