How to make my smoothie thicker?!


Question: How to make my smoothie thicker!?
Hello everyone!. I just started using my first blender and must say I enjoy it very much!. I have a "puree" function but everytime I use it!.!.!.It comes out too liquid!.

Here is my recipe:
1cup of Vanilla soy milk
1 Banana
1cup of mixed berries
1/2pint of broccoli sprouts!.
2tbsp of hemp powder!.

I always use the "puree" function but it always comes out as a drink!. I would like to have it thick enough to use a spoon!.

Any ideas on how to thicken it!?

I tried cutting the soy milk by half but still too liquid!.!.!.!.

Oh, please take note I'm a new vegan as well!.

Thanks for all the help!.

Bye!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
