❓ Q&A Section

Q1: Can I use fresh fruit instead of frozen?
✅ Yes! But for the thick texture, add a handful of ice cubes or freeze the fruit beforehand.

Q2: Is yogurt necessary?
✅ No, but it adds creaminess and protein. You can substitute with coconut cream or a dairy-free yogurt.

Q3: Can I make it vegan?
✅ Absolutely. Use almond or coconut milk and plant-based yogurt. Sweeten with agave or leave it unsweetened.

✅ Store in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 1 week. Let it thaw slightly before serving again.
