Dairy-Free Creamy Lemon Smoothie Recipe
Ultimate Dairy-Free Creamy Lemon Smoothie is with citrusy flavor, whole lemon, and a smooth dairy-free yogurt, this wholesome smoothie brings in the flavors of summer!
It’s that time: sweet summer smoothies are in, and The Ultimate Refreshing Creamy Lemon Smoothie is in rotation. I’m happy to finally share one of my favorite smoothie ingredients with you.
The creamy base of this smoothie starts with Greek yogurt and almond milk. Frozen banana adds bright flavor and cools you down on a hot day. The bright acidic nature of the lemon balances out with the sweet maple syrup.
Hemp seeds and cashews are simple ingredients that give this smoothie a slightly nutty taste, with soaked cashews also adding some creaminess and hemp seeds adding nutrition. This creamy smoothie just got creamier!
Lemon can be added to many smoothies whether it’s just for a touch of citrus or to enjoy a fully tasty lemon smoothie. This smoothie uses fresh lemon juice and a whole lemon slice to add rich flavor.
This tasty lemon smoothie can be kept in the fridge for a couple hours after you blend it up. You can save it for a quick to-go snack later in the day if you can’t drink it right away.
The addition of lemon gives a light citrus kick to most smoothies, and in this lemon-based smoothie, you can enjoy the tangy lemon flavors with yogurt and dairy-free milk options.
