Why You’ll Love This Recipe

This smoothie is not only delicious but also packed with ingredients that promote healthy, glowing skin. Strawberries are rich in vitamin C, which supports collagen production and skin health, while the avocado adds healthy fats and hydration. The collagen powder helps improve skin elasticity, making this smoothie the ultimate skin-loving drink. Plus, it’s quick to make, completely customizable, and perfect for any time of the day.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup frozen strawberries
• 1/2 avocado (for creaminess and healthy fats)
• 1 tablespoon collagen peptides (optional, for skin health)
• 1/2 cup coconut water (or any liquid of your choice)
• 1/4 cup Greek yogurt (optional, for added protein and creaminess)
• 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup ice cubes (optional, for a colder texture)

(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Directions

1. Blend the base ingredients: In a blender, combine the frozen strawberries, avocado, collagen peptides (if using), Greek yogurt (if using), coconut water, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract.
2. Add ice: If you prefer a thicker, colder smoothie, add ice cubes to the blender.
3. Blend until smooth: Blend everything on high for 30-45 seconds, or until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. You can adjust the sweetness or consistency by adding more honey or coconut water, if needed.
4. Serve: Pour the smoothie into a glass, and enjoy immediately! You can garnish with additional strawberries, chia seeds, or a drizzle of honey if desired.

Servings and Timing

• Total time: 5 minutes

Variations

• Vegan Strawberry Glaze Smoothie: Use plant-based yogurt and ensure the collagen peptides are plant-based (or substitute with a vegan protein powder).
• Berry Glaze Smoothie: Swap the strawberries for mixed berries like blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries for a different flavor profile.
• Tropical Glaze Smoothie: Add pineapple or mango instead of strawberries, and use coconut milk instead of coconut water for a tropical twist.
• Protein-Packed Smoothie: Add a scoop of protein powder (plant-based or whey) for an extra protein boost.
• Green Smoothie: Add a handful of spinach or kale to the smoothie for extra nutrients without compromising the flavor.

Storage/Reheating

• Storage: This smoothie is best enjoyed immediately, but if you have leftovers, you can store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. The texture may change slightly as it sits, so give it a quick stir before drinking.
• Freezing: You can freeze the smoothie base (without the liquid) in an airtight container for up to 1 month. When ready to enjoy, blend it with fresh coconut water or your preferred liquid for a refreshing smoothie.
• Reheating: It’s not recommended to reheat this smoothie, as it’s best enjoyed chilled or at room temperature.

FAQs

1. Can I use fresh strawberries instead of frozen?

Yes, you can use fresh strawberries, but using frozen fruit gives the smoothie a thicker, creamier texture. If you use fresh strawberries, you may want to add some ice cubes for a colder, thicker smoothie.

2. Can I use a different liquid besides coconut water?

Absolutely! You can swap coconut water for almond milk, oat milk, or any milk of your choice. Coconut water adds a refreshing, hydrating element, but any liquid will work.

3. Can I make this smoothie ahead of time?

It’s best to enjoy the smoothie fresh, but you can prepare the ingredients the night before and store them in the fridge. Blend everything together in the morning for a quick and easy smoothie.

4. Can I make this smoothie without collagen peptides?

Yes! While collagen peptides are optional and beneficial for skin health, you can skip them or replace them with a plant-based protein powder if you prefer.

5. Can I make this smoothie vegan?

Yes! Use plant-based yogurt and ensure the collagen peptides are vegan or substitute them with plant-based protein powder. Maple syrup is already vegan-friendly.

6. Can I use a different sweetener?

Yes, you can use stevia, agave, or another sweetener of your choice. Just adjust the amount to your taste.

7. Can I add greens like spinach to the smoothie?

Yes! Adding spinach or kale is a great way to boost the nutritional value without changing the flavor too much. The sweetness of the fruit and the creaminess of the avocado will mask the flavor of the greens.

8. How can I make this smoothie creamier?

For an even creamier smoothie, you can add more avocado, Greek yogurt, or even a tablespoon of nut butter (like almond or cashew butter).

9. Can I add protein powder to this smoothie?

Yes, you can add a scoop of protein powder (vanilla or plant-based) to make this smoothie more filling and protein-rich.

10. How can I make this smoothie thicker?

To make the smoothie thicker, you can add more frozen fruit (such as frozen mango or banana) or use less liquid. You can also add chia seeds or oats to thicken the texture.
