  1. How to Make a Strawberry Smoothie

    Strawberry smoothies are delicious and healthful, and you can make them in a matter of minutes. They can be a fantastic party treat or an afternoon snack/drink. There are no artificial flavors or sugar added.

    [edit] Ingredients12 frozen strawberries

    1/3 cup of orange juice

    1 cup of ice

    1/2 cup of milk (optional)

    1 1/2 tsp. of sugar (optional)

    2 tsp. of Honey

    1&1/2 tsp of strawberry ice cream or strawberry banana flavor

    [edit] StepsCombine 1/3 cup orange juice with twelve frozen strawberries in a blender.

    Add one cup ice.

    Blend for about 5 seconds, pause, then blend again. Repeat this on/off blending a few times.

    Keep blending until smooth.

    [edit] TipsNon-pulp orange juice tastes better, but if you want pulp in your smoothie, then by all means go ahead.

    You can use fresh fruit, but frozen is better. This will make the smoothie colder.

    Peel the banana before adding it to the smoothie.

    You can substitute 1/2 cup milk for orange juice. Yogurt (1/2 cup) works, too.

    You can add 1 1/2 tsp. sugar after blending.

    [edit] WarningsDon't forget to put the lid on while you're blending.

    Do not drink it too fast. It will give you "brain freeze".

    Don't cut your finger while chopping the fruit!


  2. All you need for one simple strawberry smoothie is :

    1-1/2 Bananas

    6-7 Strawberries

    1/2 an orange ( or a splash of orange juice instead )

    1-2 Tablespoons of sugar ( or honey )

    Ice cubes

    A blender

    Place the 1/2 orange ( peel removed & split into sections ) into the bottom of the blender first

    Break the banana (s) into chunks and add next

    Then add the strawberries ( rinsed and cored ) ... finally add the sugar ( or honey ) ... sometimes you can add both types of sweetener for a completely different flavor

    Blend briefly - just enough to get it down to a liquid form ... then add 1 cup of ice chunks and crush them in the Blender longer than you'd think ... to make it less " icy " and more " smoothie "

    Bonus smoothie making tips :

    You get the best results using crushed ice ( from your icemaker for example ) rather than whole ice cubes in the blender in some cases

    For variety sometimes leave out the orange and use 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract instead

  3. I don't exactly have a recipe.  What I do is throw the strawberries in the blender and blend.  Add crushed ice (you might want to use a meat mallet to crush it good).  Put in vanilla yogurt and blend.  You may have to add a little water to get it started.  Sweeten to taste and enjoy.  You can't make a bad smoothie.  Have fun experimenting.
