FAQs
Can I use raw beets instead of cooked?
It’s best to use cooked beets for a smoother texture and sweeter flavor. Raw beets can be too firm and earthy for a smoothie.
Is this smoothie suitable for vegans?
To make it vegan, substitute Nancy’s Organic Whole Milk Plain Yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and replace honey with a vegan sweetener like agave or maple syrup.
