Ingredients
Instructions
-
Start by preparing your chosen frozen fruits. If you're using fresh fruit, wash and chop them before freezing overnight. This helps create a thick and creamy smoothie texture.
-
In a blender, add the frozen fruits, sliced banana, Greek yogurt, and milk. For a creamier texture, you can increase the amount of yogurt or add a scoop of protein powder.
-
If you like your smoothie on the sweeter side, drizzle in the honey or maple syrup.
-
Top it off with a handful of ice cubes to make your smoothie extra frosty. The ice also helps to keep the drink cool on warm days.
-
Blend all the ingredients together until smooth and creamy. If the mixture seems too thick, you can add a splash more milk to reach your desired consistency.
-
Pour the smoothie into a chilled glass and garnish with a slice of fruit or a sprig of mint for a touch of elegance.
-
Sip and enjoy your homemade Fruit Smoothie!
