Equipment Needed

NutriBullet Smoothie Making Tools
NutriBullet Smoothie Making Tools

A standard blender is all that is required to make these NutriBullet smoothies. If you are making it for just one person, we recommend using the truly amazing personal NutriBullet Ultra as it is super-quick to set up and very easy to clean.

If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend the higher-end full-sized NutriBullet Smart Touch that can process larger loads more efficiently.

For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.


How To Make The Fountain Of Youth Smoothie

The NutriBullet Fountain Of Youth smoothie is very easy to make:

  • Step 1: Place avocado, nectarines, blueberries, kale, walnuts, water, and crushed ice into a blender and secure the lid.
  • Step 2: Start the blender on its lowest speed and steadily ramp up to its highest speed. This will reduce wear and tear on the motor and blades, facilitate a more consistent blend, and help prevent food splatter onto the lid and sides.
  • Step 3: Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until a smooth consistency is achieved.
  • Step 4: Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.

Recipe Tips And Substitutions

If you don’t have frozen fruit, or simply prefer to use fresh fruit (we totally get that), we recommend adding 1/2 cup of ice to chill your smoothie and give it a pleasing icy texture.

Peaches can be substituted for the nectarines without significantly altering the flavor profile.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions

Are Nutribullet blenders easy to use?

Nutribullet blenders are designed for ease of use. With a compact design and simple mechanism, users typically just need to fill the blending cup with ingredients, twist on the blade attachment, and press or twist the cup onto the base to blend. Cleaning is also straightforward, as many parts are dishwasher safe.

How are nectarines different than peaches?

Nectarines and peaches are closely related, but they have some distinct differences. The most noticeable is the skin: peaches have a fuzzy exterior, while nectarines have smooth skin. This difference is due to a genetic mutation in nectarines. In terms of flavor, nectarines tend to be firmer and more aromatic, often with a slightly more pronounced sweetness and tartness compared to peaches. Nutritionally, they are quite similar, both rich in vitamins A and C, fiber, and antioxidants
