From developing smoothie flavours in my parents’ kitchen to becoming the first-ever frozen smoothie cubes and #1 smoothie brand in Canada, we couldn’t be prouder to share an easy, quick, and nutritious breakfast option with thousands of people on a daily basis. 

It’s so funny to think that not that long ago, Dom used to cut the cubes by hand and pack them loosely in a bag! Our wheels are probably our best innovation as they allow you to save space in your freezer, portion-size, and ensure that the cubes don’t clump up together during transportation. 

Whether you recently discovered our products in your grocery store, or just ordered your very first box, this article will give you all the steps to get the very best out of your Evive smoothie taste-testing journey!

Before you get started, we always recommend that you run your smoothie wheel under water for a few seconds. It makes it so much easier to pop the cubes out!

Make your smoothie WITHOUT a blender

  1. Pop all the cubes in a bottle, a mason jar or your Evive shaker.
  2. Cover the cubes with 240 ml of your liquid of choice (we recommend plant-based milk or water) and close the lid.
  3. Let thaw for a few minutes & shake vigorously (play your favourite song while you do it!).

How to Make an Evive Smoothie

Make your smoothie WITH a blender

  1. Pop the cubes in your blender.
  2. Cover the cubes with 240 ml of your liquid of choice (check out all our liquid recommendations for inspo!). 
  3. Close the lid and blend away.

How to Make an Evive Smoothie

Need a few tips to get your ultimate smoothie texture? Here are some suggestions:


Refreshing Smoothie (juice-like texture): 1 Evive wheel + 240 ml of water or juice

Creamy Smoothie (healthy milkshake): 1 Evive wheel + half a frozen banana + 240 ml of plant-based milk

Smoothie Bowl (add your fave toppings!): 1 Evive wheel + 150 ml of plant-based milk
Pssst!: If you’re looking to make a thick and creamy smoothie bowl, check out our fave tips and tricks

Whichever preparation method you prefer to use, don’t forget the last and most important step of all: enjoy EVERY SINGLE SIP of your Evive smoothie!

Now that you’ve mastered the art of obtaining the ultimate smoothie bowl texture, the next step is to garnish that smooth bowl with toppings to truly create the tastiest work of art. We wanted to share the team’s favourite smoothie bowl toppings to inspire you. We even categorized all our suggestions in 3 different categories: one for the crunchy fans, one for the tangy fans, and one for the sweet tooths! That way, you can pick your toppings according to your preferences or cravings!

Crunch fans

  • Add a little crunch to your smoothie bowl by adding granola
  • Sprinkle a few oat flakes

Recreate this smoothie bowl with our Saphir cubes.

Fresh/tangy taste buds

  • Decorate with fresh and frozen fruits

Recreate this smoothie bowl with our Viva cubes.

Sweet tooths

  • Top with a spoonful of peanut butter or hazelnut spread 
  • Add some chocolate chips and coconut flakes

Recreate this smoothie bowl with our Azteque cubes.

If you’re like me, you may enjoy picking a topping from each category. You can never go wrong with some granola, banana slices and a spoonful of hazelnut spread, no matter the smoothie flavour you choose!

Have fun with it! Don’t hesitate to send us your creations and share them on social media. If you do, feel free to tag us (@evivenutrition) so we can see them!

I love to make myself smoothie bowls on a weekly basis – whether for breakfast or brunch – it’s such a fun way to enjoy a delicious meal. Smoothie bowls are extra easy to whip up, thanks to our Evive smoothie cubes. I love the creative element of adding different types of toppings – you can create a mini work of art! It’s definitely a mindful way to start the day, which compliments my morning routine. I’d love for you to try making your very own smoothie bowls with your family. 💙

evive, evive smoothie, blue smoothie, saphir, blue smoothie bowl, smoothie bowl toppings, vegan smoothie, plant-based smoothie

Here’s how I prepared my delicious smoothie bowl:

Ingredients:

  • 8 Saphir cubes (or any other Evive flavour)
  • 1/2 frozen banana
  • 150 ml of oat milk* (the less liquid you put, the thicker the texture)

*You can also use any other type of plant-based milk!

Steps:

Place everything in the blender and finish with your favourite toppings.

For this particular Saphir smoothie bowl, I put as toppings:

  • Granola with chocolate chunks
  • Vegan yogurt
  • Quinoa puffs
  • Blueberries
  • Kiwis, sliced
  • Strawberries, sliced

My favourite toppings in general are:

  • Granola! My favourite brands are: Fourmis Bionique, Oat Box, & Granolust
  • Of course, the types of fruit I add to my smoothie bowl depends on my mood, the smoothie flavour I made, and what I have in my fridge🙈 But in general, my favourite fruit toppings are strawberries, bananas, & blueberries🍓🍌

I hope you’ll try making your very own smoothie bowl at home! I promise it’s super easy and very satisfying to nourish yourself with such a healthy and delicious breakfast.
