Baby Smoothie - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use frozen fruits instead of fresh ones for the Baby Smoothie?

Yes, frozen fruits work well and can make the smoothie thicker. No need to thaw—just blend them directly for a refreshing chill.

What yogurt alternatives can I use for a dairy-free version?

You can substitute dairy yogurt with almond, coconut, or soy yogurt. Ensure it's unsweetened to control the sugar content.

How long can I store the Baby Smoothie in the fridge?

Store it in an airtight container for up to 24 hours. Stir well before serving as separation may occur.

Can I make this smoothie ahead for meal prep?

Yes, but for best texture, freeze individual portions in airtight containers or ice cube trays and blend briefly before serving.

How can I make this smoothie thicker or thinner?

Add a banana or avocado for thickness. For a thinner consistency, use more yogurt or a splash of milk (dairy or plant-based).

What are some nutritious add-ins for this smoothie?

Boost nutrition with chia seeds, flaxseeds, or a spoonful of nut butter. A pinch of cinnamon or vanilla adds flavor without sugar.

Can I omit the cherry or substitute it with another fruit?

Absolutely! Try strawberries, blueberries, or mango for a different flavor profile while keeping the smoothie fruity and sweet.

Is this smoothie suitable for babies under 1 year old?

Consult your pediatrician first, but typically, plain yogurt (not honey-sweetened) and ripe fruits are safe for babies over 6 months if blended smoothly.

Can I use water instead of yogurt to reduce calories?

Yes, but the smoothie will be less creamy. For balance, use half water and half yogurt, or try low-calorie coconut water for flavor.

Three ingredients point to the Asian origin of this "Squirt": soju - the Korean national drink, the juice of the Asian citrus fruit yuzu and another citrus - pomelo.
