Recipe Tips

No Blender? No Problem!

If you don't have a blender, you have two easy alternatives:
  1. Whisk method: Place all ingredients in a bowl and whisk vigorously until completely combined and smooth.
  2. Shake method: Put all ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid and shake vigorously until well mixed. This method works great and makes for easy storage afterward!
