Ingredients for Guava Passionfruit Protein Smoothie

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

Ripe Guava: Adds natural sweetness and a unique tropical flavor to the smoothie. Ensure your guavas are soft and fragrant for the best taste.
Passionfruit Pulp: Provides a tangy and aromatic burst of flavor. You can use fresh or frozen pulp depending on availability.
Greek Yogurt: Adds creaminess and a boost of protein to keep you feeling full. Opt for plain or vanilla flavored.
Almond Milk: Helps to blend everything smoothly, keeping the smoothie refreshing. You can substitute with regular milk or any dairy-free alternatives.
Honey (optional): Adds additional sweetness if preferred, especially if your fruits are less ripe.

How to Make Guava Passionfruit Protein Smoothie

Begin by cutting the ripe guava in half and scooping out the flesh with a spoon. Dispose of the seeds as you extract the fruit.
Next, if using fresh passionfruit, scoop out the pulp into a bowl. For frozen passionfruit, simply measure out the required amount.
In a blender, combine the guava flesh, passionfruit pulp, Greek yogurt, and almond milk. Add honey if you’d like extra sweetness.
Blend the mixture on high until smooth and creamy, ensuring all ingredients are fully incorporated.
Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy it immediately for the best flavor and freshness!

Tips for Making Guava Passionfruit Protein Smoothie

Use Ripe Ingredients: The key to a delicious smoothie lies in the freshness of the fruits. Choose ripe guavas and passionfruits for maximum flavor.
Adjust Consistency: If the smoothie is too thick, simply add a bit more almond milk to reach your desired consistency.
Vary the Sweetness: Tweak the honey amount according to your preference and the ripeness of your fruits; some may find it sweet enough without additional sweetener.

Make-Ahead Instructions

Prepare all the ingredients in advance and store them in the refrigerator. Blend them just before serving for a fresh smoothie.
Alternatively, you can portion out the ingredients into bags or containers and freeze them for faster morning prep. Just blend with almond milk when you’re ready!

Storing Leftovers

For best results, smoothies are best enjoyed fresh. However, if you need to store leftovers, keep the smoothie in an airtight container in the fridge for 24 hours. Shake well before drinking, as separation may occur.

Freezing Guava Passionfruit Protein Smoothie

To freeze, pour the smoothie into ice cube trays or freezer-safe containers. Once frozen, you can blend again later for a refreshing drink.
Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before consuming, or blend the frozen cubes directly with additional almond milk if you prefer.

Reheating Guava Passionfruit Protein Smoothie

Reheating isn’t typically necessary for smoothies, but if you prefer a warm drink, gently heat in a saucepan over low heat until just warm.
Do not boil the smoothie, as high temperatures may affect the flavor and texture.

Serving Suggestions

Serve chilled with a slice of lime or a mint sprig for an extra refreshing touch.
Pair with a light breakfast such as avocado toast or a fruit salad for a balanced meal.
