Instructions
- Add the milk to a high-speed blender.
- Add the frozen blueberries, almond butter, and fine sea salt.
- Add the ice cubes and vanilla extract. 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 blueberries if too thin.
- Pour into a glass and serve immediately.
Tips
- For a thicker smoothie, freeze the almond butter or use less milk. Use natural almond butter for a less sweet, more authentic almond flavor.
