Tips

• Water vs. Milk: Water keeps it light, but you can use milk (like almond, oat, or dairy) for a creamier result.

• Adjust thickness: Too thick? Add a splash of milk or water. Too runny? Reduce liquid slightly next time.

• If using protein powder, add a bit more water or milk for your desired consistency.
