How to make a smoothie

 Everyone loves to have a delicious smoothie, whether it’s a healthy one that you have to have for your diet, or you just feel like being creative and making something yummy! Smoothies are almost always made with fruit and a dairy product and putting any other ingredient in with that is up to you.

First, when making a smoothie you’ll need a blender or something to crush and mix up all your ingredients with. I will be using a blender, put your appliance on the highest setting at first so everything will chop enough to be drinkable.

Then, get the fruit of your choice, when making a smoothie you can use fresh, caned, or frozen fruit. Also get your choice of a liquid, milk, ice cream, yogurt, or water. You can also add some sort of protein if desired or any other ingredient you want to add in (peanut butter, nutella, anything to add more flavor.)

Now, you need to put everything in the blender. Mix all of your ingredients on high until you get a smooth, whipped-like texture. At this time you can add some honey if you want it to be sweeter or sugar whatever you prefer.  If adding some honey I would add about a 1 tsp. blend it again and taste is just keep adding 1 tsp. at a time until it is how you like.

 

After that, you will need to add your ice cubes. Only put a couple of cubes in, the more ice the more watery your drink will be. If you are using a frozen fruit you don’t even have to add ice!

Finally, you need to blend it all together. Don’t forget to put the lid on!! You will need to blend until the ice is crushed. Once finished you may pour your delicious smoothie into your favorite cup and enjoy the yummy creation you just made!
