Top Tip
ook for pre-sliced frozen strawberries, which blend more easily, but whole strawberries work as well if you have a powerful blender. Make sure everything is blended well to get a smooth texture without any lumps or chunks of fruit. If the whole frozen strawberries are too much for your blender, let them sit for 5-10 minutes in the blender with the other ingredients before blending.
Freeze for later
You can make ahead the strawberry smoothie and freeze it for later. Prepare it according to the recipe and pour it into a freezer-safe glass jar or freezer bag. Store the smoothie in the freezer for up to 3 months. When you are ready to enjoy it, let the frozen drink thaw in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. The texture may change a bit, but you can blend it for a few seconds before serving to get the right creamy consistency.

In need of a quick frothy treat that everyone in the family will love? A strawberry smoothie makes for a simple, refreshing fruity snack you can enjoy for breakfast, lunch, or as a frosty dessert. But what makes it truly stand out is the light creamy consistency and subtly sweet fruit flavour from the strawberries. We have also added a few ice cubes that give the treat an extra frothy texture.

Make a strawberry smoothie with banana, blueberry, and mango
Use our recipe for strawberry smoothie as a base for a banana strawberry smoothie. It is a perfect marriage of sweet and fresh flavours. Making a flavourful banana strawberry smoothie is as simple as blending all the ingredients until you have a smooth, uniform mixture bursting with juicy strawberry flavour and a pop of pink colour. Both fresh and frozen strawberries work with this recipe. The banana gives the characteristic perfectly creamy and smooth consistency of a banana strawberry smoothie.
The flavours of a strawberry smoothie also pair well with mangos for a strawberry mango smoothie. Add frozen mango pieces to the blender and blend with the other ingredients until you have a smoothie texture. If you do not have frozen mango, you can cut fresh mango into smaller pieces and pop them in the freezer until they are solid.
How about a blueberry, banana, and strawberry smoothie? It sounds like a mouthful but tastes so delicately sweet with a juicy burst of berries. For a frothy texture, use frozen banana slices and blueberries and blitz them in the blender with the other ingredients.
