Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 medium Ripe banana, peeled and cut into chunks
  • 1 cup, about 150 g Strawberries, washed and hulled
  • 1/2 cup, about 120 g Plain or vanilla yogurt
  • 1/2 cup, 120 ml Milk, plus more as needed
Optional Ingredients
  • 1-2 teaspoons Honey or another sweetener
  • 1/2 cup Ice, mainly for fresh fruit

Method
 

Step-by-Step
  1. Wash and hull the strawberries. Peel the banana and cut it into chunks so the blender can process the fruit quickly.
  2. Pour the milk and yogurt into the blender first. Add the banana, strawberries, optional honey or other sweetener, and ice if using.
  3. Blend on high for 30 to 60 seconds, or until the smoothie looks smooth and creamy with no noticeable pieces of fruit.
  4. Check the consistency before serving. Add a small amount of milk to thin it, or add extra fruit or ice to make it thicker.
  5. Pour into glasses and serve immediately while the smoothie is cold and freshly blended.

Notes

Use a very ripe banana to add natural sweetness and help reduce the need for honey. Frozen banana or frozen strawberries create a thick, cold smoothie without requiring much ice.
