Photo Credit: sreelus
Okay, I realize creamy and blackberry don’t usually go together but that is what smoothieweb.com is all about, mixing flavors and textures that don’t always come to mind. This blackberry smoothie is worth the risk. Let me know how you like it.
Ingredients:
- 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream (a good start, yes?)
- 1 1/2 cups of frozen blackberries
- 1/2 cup of strawberries
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 tsp lime juice (for a tart kick)
- dollop of whipped cream
Blend until you can’t wait and then add the whipped cream.

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.

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!

Cilantro Surprise Smoothie
Okay, okay, you are reading this and thinking, “Cilantro Smoothie”? Well, me too. But what is life without trying new things and that means trying new smoothies. You will see some familiar ingredients such as strawberries and papaya but also some not-so-familiar ingredients such as almond milk (see below) which can be difficult to find.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1 cup papaya
- 1 cup cilantro
- 8 large strawberries
- 4 dates
HOW DO I MAKE ALMOND MILK?
You can make almond milk by soaking 1 cup of almonds for a few hours. When finished
soaking, strain them and blend them with 3 cups of filtered water. Strain the resulting mixture through a nut milk bag. You can add sweetener or vanilla for additional flavor. To store, place in the refrigerator in an air-tight container. You can also buy almond milk in a health food store, but it will not be raw.
Put everything until smooth. Dr. Yoshiaki Omura discovered that mercury levels in the urine increased after an individual ate Vietnamese soup, which contains cilantro. Dr. Omura’s further research discovered that the herb cilantro could accelerate the excretion of mercury, lead, and aluminum from the body.

Most of us don’t really have a package of frozen strawberries or a container of plain yogurt (not to mention flaxseed) lying around, but we crave smoothies too! So this is for you, ESPECIALLY if you’re a college student and you can swipe all these items from your dining hall.
Ingredients:
- 4 ice cubes
- All-fruit Popsicle (I used Edy’s strawberry Fresh Fruit bar)
- 1/2 cup of orange juice
- 1/2 cup of milk
- 6 oz flavored yogurt (I used Yoplait light banana creme pie)
- 1/2 banana
- 1/3 packet of instant oatmeal (I used Quaker Low Sugar Strawberries and Cream)
and just blend it all up!
Submitted by a college student, obviously.
