Ingredients

• 2 medium Guava (fresh or canned, deseeded)
• 6 pieces Dried apricots
• 1 large Banana (ripe)
• 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)
• 1 cup Unsweetened almond milk (or any preferred milk)
• 2 teaspoons Honey (optional, for sweetness)
• 4 pieces Ice cubes

Directions

Step 1

If using dried apricots, soak them in warm water for 5-10 minutes to soften them, then drain.

Step 2

Peel the guavas and cut them in half. Use a spoon to remove the seeds, as they can be tough to blend. Dice the guava flesh into small chunks.

Step 3

Peel the ripe banana and cut it into smaller chunks for easier blending.

Step 4

In a blender, combine the guava chunks, softened dried apricots, banana, Greek yogurt, almond milk, and honey (if using).

Step 5

Add the ice cubes to the blender for a chilled, refreshing texture.

Step 6

Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. You may need to pause and scrape down the sides of the blender if needed.

Step 7

Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness by adding a little more honey if desired.

Step 8

Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. Garnish with a small slice of guava or a sprinkling of chopped apricots for presentation, if desired.
