No reason you can't jazz it up... might lose some in the vitamix container, but that would be all. You could add fruit etc, flax oil, or lecithin granules, or cocoa. The cocoa might lump up unless you mix it in something to suspend it first. Fine powders can clump up, but my cinnamon didn't. (people typically don't use much cinnamon however).

If I do this later, I'll make a video and we shall see my new concoctions.

Every morning now I make Alan a fresh orange wheatgrass smoothie and he doesn't taste the wheatgrass. I just toss in a whole orange (unpeeled of course), add a tiny bit of wheatgrass (and sometimes I add some pineapple) and in less than 60 seconds he has all the nutrition of that drink.

No more bottled or canned juices in this house. Not since I got the Vitamix. His skin is even better for it. All that C and whatever else is in fresh fruit.

I'm not a smoothie person but I do want to give this kefir stuff a try.

And my ice cream at night is to die for. If I knew I could make peanut butter chocoate banana ice cream at 7:30 at night every night and get up and my blood sugar is 87, well, I would have done this YEARS ago.

Best ice cream I could ever make. All those tastes combining.

Heaven!!! lol
