Why this works
Greek yogurt supplies a creamy, tangy base; strawberries add fruit flavor and hemp hearts give body without avocado.
- Pour cold water in first, then add the other ingredients.
- Use chilled ingredients; blend thoroughly so the hemp hearts are smooth.
- Serve promptly. Ground seeds thicken on standing; blend again with a little extra water if needed.
