Notes
Ingredient notes
Strawberries
– Frozen for a thick texture; if using fresh, add
½ cup ice
.
Banana
– The riper, the sweeter! If underripe, keep the
honey
in.
Honey
– Optional for sweetness; skip if your banana is extra ripe.
Milk
– Dairy or non-dairy both work. Or use juice!
Greek Yogurt
– Plain for a tangy, protein boost; vanilla for extra sweetness.
Vanilla Extract
– Adds flavor but optional; swap with vanilla Greek yogurt if preferred.
Recipe tips
Liquids first!
– Always add
milk and yogurt first
for smoother blending.
Low-power blender?
– Blend everything
except
strawberries first, then add them gradually.
No need for ice
– Frozen fruit keeps it thick and cold; add ice only if you want it
extra
thick.
Adjust as needed
– Too thick? Add more
milk
. Too thin? Blend in a few
ice cubes
.
Drink it fresh
– Best right away; it thickens as it sits.
Storage tips
Make-ahead
– Pre-portion
banana + strawberries
in freezer bags for quick blending.
Leftovers
– Store in a
sealed jar in the fridge
for up to
2 hours
; shake before drinking.
Freezer-friendly
– Pour into
popsicle molds
for a fun frozen treat or
ice cube trays
for easy re-blending.
