Crush up your ice. If your blender can't handle regularly sized ice cubes, you will need to crush up your ice. An easy way to do this is to place the ice cubes in a plastic bag and bang on them a few times with a meat tenderizer. Then add ice cube chunks to the blender.

Add a banana for an extra serving of fruit. Bananas go great with any flavor of smoothie.
Not all yogurts are packaged in the same way. You need at least 6 ounces of yogurt for your smoothie to be truly smooth.
