Method

Prepare Ingredients

  1. 1

    Wash and Hull Strawberries

    Rinse the strawberries under cold water, pat dry, then remove stems and hull. Cut larger berries in half so they blend evenly.

  2. 2

    Prepare Banana

    Peel the banana and break it into chunks to help the blender process it smoothly.

Blend Smoothie

  1. 3

    Add Base Ingredients

    Add the prepared strawberries and banana to the blender. Pour in the yogurt and milk, then add the honey or maple syrup and vanilla extract if using.

  2. 4

    Add Ice and Optional Boosts

    Add the ice cubes, chia seeds and/or spinach if using. These will chill the smoothie and adjust texture and nutrition.

  3. 5

    Blend Until Smooth

    Secure the blender lid and blend on medium-high for about 45–60 seconds, or until the mixture is completely smooth and no large fruit pieces remain. If the smoothie is too thick, add 1–2 tbsp (15–30 ml) more milk and blend briefly. If too thin, add another small slice of banana or a few more ice cubes and pulse until desired thickness is reached.

Serve

  1. 6

    Pour the smoothie into a 16-oz (about 475 ml) glass. Garnish with a strawberry slice on the rim and banana slices on top. Serve immediately with a straw.
