Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1.5 cup frozen lychee peeled and pitted, for a thick, cold texture
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk or any plant-based milk
- 2 tbsp dried edible rose petals plus extra for garnish
- 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup, adjust to taste
- 1 tsp vanilla extract for depth of flavor
- 1 cup ice cubes optional, if fresh lychee is used
Notes
For storage, keep any leftover smoothie in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; shake or stir before serving as it may separate. Make-ahead tip: Prepare the rose petal infusion and freeze it in ice cube trays for a quick blend later. For a variation, add a handful of frozen strawberries for a pink hue and extra sweetness. This smoothie is perfect as a light breakfast or a post-workout refreshment.
