Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups strawberries fresh or frozen
  • 1 medium banana
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/2 cup plain or vanilla yogurt
  • 1 to 2 tbsp honey or maple syrup optional
  • 1/2 cup ice cubes optional
  • 2 strawberries sliced, for garnish

Equipment

  • 1 Blender
  • 1 Measuring cup
  • 1 Measuring spoon
  • 2 Serving glasses

Method
 

  1. Wash and hull the strawberries, then peel and slice the banana.
  2. Add the strawberries, banana, milk, yogurt, and optional honey or maple syrup to the blender.
  3. Add the ice cubes if using fresh strawberries.
  4. Blend for 30 to 60 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  5. If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more milk and blend again.
  6. Pour into 2 serving glasses, garnish with sliced strawberries, and serve immediately.

Notes

For the best texture and flavor, serve the strawberry smoothie immediately after blending. Use frozen strawberries or a frozen banana for a thicker, colder smoothie, and adjust the milk as needed to reach your preferred consistency.
