Ingredients

Method

Prep the fruit

Slice the bananas and hull the strawberries. For an extra-thick, cold smoothie, freeze the banana slices for an hour beforehand.

Blend

Add the banana, strawberries, milk and honey to a blender and blend on high until completely smooth.

Adjust the consistency

If it’s too thick, splash in a little more milk; if too thin, add a few ice cubes and blend again.

Serve

Pour into a glass and serve immediately.

TipFreezing the banana ahead of time gives a thick, milkshake-like texture without watering the smoothie down with ice.
