Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup (120g) fresh strawberries, hulled
- 1 tbsp (15ml) maple syrup
- 1 tsp (5ml) fresh lemon juice
- 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened vanilla almond milk
- 1 cup (150g) frozen strawberries

- 1 tbsp (15g) sea moss gel
- 2 pitted Medjool dates (15g)
- 1 pinch (1g) sea salt
Instructions:
- Blend the fresh strawberries, maple syrup, and lemon juice until completely smooth to create the glaze.
- Using a spoon, swirl the strawberry glaze around the inner walls of a tall glass or mason jar and place the glass in the freezer.
- Pour the unsweetened vanilla almond milk into a high-speed blender.
- Add the collagen peptides, sea moss gel, pitted Medjool dates, and avocado to the blender.
- Add the frozen strawberries and frozen banana slices on top.
- Blend on high speed until the mixture is velvety and no date fragments remain.
- Remove the chilled glass from the freezer and slowly pour the smoothie base into the center, allowing it to push the glaze toward the edges.
