Shopping Tips!!!
To prepare the smoothie, I used the very handy blender jug from my 7L Titanium Chef Patissier XL stand mixer with built-in scale and blender, a faithful kitchen ally for: kneading, weighing, whisking, cooking, chopping, and pasteurizing eggs.
You can find this stand mixer on Amazon at a special price.
Alternatively, if you are looking for a more affordable and smaller stand mixer with a 5-liter bowl, you can easily choose to purchase Kenwood Chef Baker Stand Mixer with built-in scale, 1200 W power.
To weigh the ingredients, I use this handy digital kitchen scale, with a large removable bowl, tare function, and built-in timer, available on Amazon at a great price.
