**SUBS: frozen avocado, frozen banana, tofu, or soft cashews (soaked in hot water for 20min) will all help achieve the thick and creamy texture of the blizzard. I tried with banana first and the texture was perfect, but note you can slightly taste the banana - it was more of a cherry banana flavor **I added collagen as my protein source because I didn't want to change the color, but now that I've tasted it I believe a chocolate protein powder would be a delicious touch.
