How to Make a Strawberry and Banana Smoothie

If you are looking for a little sunshine with the dawn of winter, this is it. This smoothie is easy to make and will easily put a little smile on your face. Enjoy.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 1 Banana
• 2 cups Strawberry's
• 10 oz vanilla yogurt
• A little dash of milk
• A dash of honey

1. To start off this is very easy. Grab a banana and about 10-12 strawberry's depending on size. You want to get a like 50-50 ratio between the strawberry's and the banana. Now you can chop up the bananas are small or big as you want, they are going right in the blender. Also, you are going to want to cut the stems out of the strawberry's.

2. Now that these are cut up, you want to throw these in these in the blender, with the yogurt, milk, and honey. If you want a little crunchiness or something to keep it cooler, you can throw 2-3 ice cubes in there as well.

3. Turn the blender on now and let it go for about 25-30 seconds. When its done, run a spoon through it to check for chunks. If you find any, than your going to want to put it back in the blender until they're gone.

4. Now for the final touch, take 1 piece of the banana and 1 strawberry, put them on a either a toothpick or a tropical umbrella and top off the drink with this.

Tips & Warnings

• If you want to make this an alcoholic drink, than think about adding 2-3 oz of rum.
• Try adding more fruits to make it a different type of drink. Adding kiwi to this adds a nice flavor.
