Strawberry Smoothie with a Sweet Twist

December 5, 2009 · Filed Under Strawberry Smoothies · 3 Comments 

Sometimes naming a smoothie can be difficult. I mean you can only come up with so many smoothies with “surprise” or “delight” in the name. But strawberry smoothies are especially difficult because there are so many variations. So this recipe has a little bit of everything (the twist) and ice cream + honey (the sweet). The inexact science of naming smoothie recipes.

Ingredients:

  • 4 strawberries
  • 1 banana
  • Half mango
  • Half pineapple
  • 2 scoops Ice-cream
  • 1 cup of Orange Juice
  • 1 teaspoon of honey

Preparation:
Chop strawberries in half. Chop banana in 4 pieces. Chop mango and pineapple in 4 pieces (8 in total.) 2 scoops of ice-cream and put in blender. Pour orange juice in blender. Add the teaspoon of honey. Put all ingrediants in blender and blend until smooth. Pour in glass and enjoy!

  • 8 oz. crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 1/4 cup of milk
  • 1/2 cup of unsweetened strawberries  (frozen or fresh)
  • 2 tbs. honey
  • 6 ice cubes
  • 1 scoop of vanilla ice cream (optional)

Garnish

  • whipped topping
  • chocolate syrup
  • maraschino cherries

Preparation
Combine bananas, pineapple, milk, strawberries and honey in a blender. Blend until smooth, no lumps. Start adding ice slowly and blending until slushy. Pour into large glasses, preferably chilled then garnish with whipped topping, chocolate syrup, and maraschino cherries. The perfect banana split in a glass.

My wife seems to buy a lot of clementine oranges during the winter so I thought I should add a smoothie with clementines. After all, if they are a great winter fruit we should take advantage of them during the cold months here in Virginia.

Ingredients:

  • 16 clementines, segmented
  • 1 cup cubed fresh pineapples
  • 2 bananas, sliced
  • 2 cups milk or plain yogurt
  • Ice cubes

Directions:

  1. Supreme segment 16 clementines; set aside.
  2. Combine fresh clementines, pineapples, bananas, milk or yogurt and ice cubes in a blender.
  3. Blend until smooth.
  4. Serve with fresh clementine slices.
  5. Serves about 4
