- 1/4 teaspoon lemon zest
- 1/2 cup ice cubes
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all the smoothie ingredients as listed, ensuring the banana and blueberries are frozen as specified for the best texture.
- Add to Blender: Place the ingredients into the blender in the order listed: milk first, followed by yogurt, frozen blueberries, frozen banana, oats, lemon zest, and ice cubes last. This order helps the blades move smoothly during blending.
