Layer your blender: Add liquid first, then yogurt, banana, and finally the frozen fruit on top. This helps the blades grab and blend smoothly.
Blend on low, then high: Start slow to break up the fruit.
Increase to high for 30–45 seconds until silky and uniform.
Adjust sweetness and brightness: Taste. Add honey/maple if needed, plus the citrus juice and a tiny pinch of salt. Blend briefly to combine.
Tweak thickness: Too thick?
Splash in more liquid. Too thin? Add a handful of frozen fruit or a few ice cubes and blend again.
Serve immediately: Pour into a chilled glass and sip right away for peak frosty texture.
