Choose with context

Why choose this recipe?

Use this recipe when the flavor looks right, then check the role it plays: protein, calories, cup size, and the first-spin texture note.

Best for

Best when ingredient fit matters first and you want plant milk, coconut, or fruit texture support visible before freezing.

Watch first

Watch for icy or snowy texture from fruit, plant milk, or lower fat. Try a short rest before adding liquid.

Customize safely

If you replace yogurt, fruit, coconut, casein, or gum, change one support at a time so the next spin teaches you something.

Texture fixes

Icy

Add 25-40g banana, yogurt, or coconut milk in the next version.

Muted flavor

Increase the primary flavor by 10-15% or add a pinch of salt before the next freeze.

Use this if fruit, plant milk, low fat, or low sugar makes the first spin hard, snowy, or icy.
