For me, smoothies aren’t about being beautiful. I make them for breakfast because I can just throw things into a spinning blade, and out comes something nutritious that I can take on the road.
And it usually tastes pretty good!
But in this Cringey Kitchen adventure, we wanted to challenge ourselves and make a smoothie that is as beautiful on the outside as it is on the inside. So, we layered it.
This smoothie is one blend and then another blend put together in the same cup. Each of them can be had separately, but they look good together.
The contrasting flavors we decided on was strawberry banana and avocado berry. Not only do they taste different, they also have two different consistencies which adds to the fun.
The avocado berry smoothie is thick but fluffy, while the strawberry banana smoothie is thin and silky.
