Notes

  • Verify that edamame are blanched before being frozen. Otherwise, cook them and freeze them days before.
  • Edamame are fresh soybeans. If you've never eaten them before, start with 1 tablespoon and build your smoothie as you get used to it.
  • Use very ripped fruits for the taste.
  • If you are avoiding high-sugar fruits, add extra lemon juice to enhance the taste.
  • Depending on the season, frozen fruits in summer or at room temperature during cold days.
  • Use extra milk for a runny smoothie.
