# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • The earthy beet flavor gets completely transformed into something surprisingly refreshing and sweet
  • It takes literally ten minutes from fridge to glass, perfect for busy mornings
02 -
  • Raw beets can have a strong earthy taste at first, so start with half a beet if you are new to beet smoothies
  • The frozen fruit acts as ice cubes, so your drink stays thick without getting watered down
03 -
  • Let the blender run for an extra 30 seconds to ensure the beet is completely broken down
  • Cold ingredients make a thicker smoothie, so keep your fruit frozen
