Spiced Almond Smoothie
Thick, creamy, and perfectly spiced. This is the kind of morning beverage that will put a little spring into your step and help you tackle whatever chores your daily grind entails. The flavors are warm and inviting without being too over the top. I adore the addition of the almond extract which pairs really well with the almond milk, almond butter and spices in this smoothie. This recipe has been on repeat the past few mornings and I hope you all enjoy this smoothie as much as we do.
Cheers from Tumbleweed Farm.

When it comes to smoothies, it can’t get much heartier than this. I stock up on almond extract when I’m back home visiting because I love it so much. But I’ve yet to add it to a smoothie. This will have to change!
This is such a delicious smoothie. Love the simplicity and love that even when I’m running low on staples I can still whip this up to rescue me!
Hi Andrea,
I’m totally addicted to your Almond Latte and rhis recipe looks equally addictive. Can’t wait to try it in the morning.

What luscious flavors go into this smoothie — the little touch of spice is perfection 🙂
Have been making this all week- a perfect mid-morning pick me up. Thank you!
yay! this makes me so happy. Cheers!
Can we sub the banana out for something else? We love smoothies in our house but some of the pickier folk prefer no banana taste? Thank you!
