# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • It tastes like a tropical vacation but takes less time than your morning shower.
  • You can prep it in 10 minutes, which means no excuses on rushed weekday mornings.
  • The texture contrast between creamy base and crunchy toppings makes every spoonful feel intentional.
02 -
  • Guavas can taste disappointingly bland if they're not fully ripe, so squeeze them gently and wait until they feel like a ripe avocado before you buy.
  • Blending the base right before serving prevents the fruit from separating and turning watery, which is why this isn't a make-ahead recipe the way some smoothies are.
03 -
  • Slice your banana and freeze it yourself rather than buying frozen, since homemade version actually tastes like banana instead of ice.
  • A squeeze of lime juice added to the blender right at the end brightens everything and makes the tropical flavor pop without making it taste sour.
