Strawberry banana smoothie recipe tips:
- You can use frozen strawberries instead and omit the ice in the recipe. Using frozen berries will also make the smoothie a touch sweeter.
- For this drink, there’s no need to add sugar! The berries and bananas provide tons of sweetness, though adding sugar or honey is undoubtedly an option if you prefer a sweeter taste.
- I love using a Nutribullet to make my blended drinks — it’s easy to clean and I can even drink my smoothie directly from the blending cup!
- You can always add chia seeds or spinach to this smoothie for a healthy boost.
My boys couldn’t wait to start slurping up this smoothie!
A classic strawberry banana smoothie is a must-make recipe for sweet refreshment on a hot summer day. Plus, when a recipe is this simple and quick to make, it’s easy to whip these drinks up when my kiddos are begging for me to make some!
My Hip2Save sidekick, Jenna, tried out this recipe, and here’s what she had to say:
“I absolutely LOVE this smoothie. It turned out perfectly! I would make this regularly as my morning smoothie! I think the Greek yogurt truly put this recipe over the top and made it so tasty and creamy.”
Good morning, when you freeze it, it’s it hard to reblend it?
Replace the almond milk with apple juice and you have a Strawberries Wild 🙂
Thank you Crystal, that is my absolute favorite!
Just got a new blender. Can’t wait to try.
