Smoothie
A thick, blended drink of fruit with yogurt, milk, juice or ice, sometimes with vegetables, nuts or seeds.
- Frozen desserts and sweet beverages
Frozen fruit, such as bananas and berries, makes smoothies thick and cold without watering them down. Yogurt or nut butter adds creaminess and protein.
Blend liquids first, then softer ingredients, then frozen fruit and ice, so the blender runs smoothly.
