  • The frozen cauliflower adds creaminess and nutrients without altering the flavor significantly.

  • Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less maple syrup according to taste.
  • This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; stir well before drinking.
