2. A smoothie is so much more than blended fruit. It's an injection of health with all of its
different elements blending perfectly together. Just in case these 10 smoothies aren't
enough, here is our guide to making the perfect smoothie.
Pick your fruit: We chose strawberries, blackberries, raspberries, and bananas to be
our base, but any combo of fruit is great. Make a tropical smoothie of pineapple,
mango, and banana or add blueberry and peach to switch it up a bit for a summer
twist. Aim for about 3 cups of fruit.
Fresh or frozen fruit? For smoothies, frozen fruit is best. It blends up thicker than
fresh fruit and gives you a really cold smoothie to enjoy after blending. If you don't
have frozen fruit, freeze your fresh fruit for 30 minutes before blending or add about 1
cup of ice and blend until smooth!
Add a thickener: We use unsweetened Greek yoghurt in our smoothie, but peanut
butter, almond butter, or vanilla yoghurt are all great options. Traditionally about 1/2
cup is ideal. If you prefer thinner smoothies, you can either lessen the amount of
thickener or skip it all together.
Choose a liquid: Almond milk is great for the added nutty flavour, but coconut milk
pairs well with a tropical smoothie and gives a richer, creamier flavour. Whole milk or
fruit juice also work well. 1 1/4 cup of liquid makes the perfect consistency for our
preference. If you skipped the thickener, use less liquid as well.
Add-ons: Add some spinach or kale for additional nutrition or flax seeds for omega-
3s. Flavours like fresh mint, vanilla extract, cinnamon, or honey will take any smoothie
to the next level.
