Instructions

Add the frozen blueberries and orange segments.
Add the ice cubes and fine sea salt.
Blend on low speed for 10 seconds, then increase to high and blend for 35–50 seconds until smooth.
Check the consistency. If too thick, blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk. If too thin, add a few more ice cubes or frozen fruit and blend again.
