Instructions

Add the milk to a high-speed blender first.
Add the frozen raspberries, frozen banana, and vanilla extract.
Add the ice cubes and a pinch of fine sea salt.
Blend on low for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds until completely smooth.
Check consistency. Blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes or frozen fruit if too thin.
Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.

Tips

Use frozen banana and raspberries for a cold, creamy texture without needing additional ice. Substitute almond or oat milk for a dairy-free option.
