Hello Smoothie

Regular ice cubes or frozen milk or even frozen coffee ice cubes all work wonderfully to thicken up a smoothie. I always add at least 1/2 to 1 cup of ice cubes to my smoothies because I like them very cold and thick. Again, frozen ingredients make the biggest difference in making thick smoothie bowls.

Start with 1 cup fresh or frozen fruit. Some great fruit bases include strawberries, blueberries, mangoes, bananas, pineapple, cherries and peaches. Veggie. If you don't mind the green color, adding a handful of spinach or kale is a good way to bring more antioxidants to your drink

Although sweetness usually comes from the fruit and yogurt, add a little granulated white sugar, maple syrup, honey, agave, brown rice syrup if you like a sweeter drink. Fruit Smoothie: Place all the ingredients in a blender or food processor and process until smooth. If necessary, add more fruit juice or crushed ice.

Most smoothies use either yogurt or juice and ice as a base to make it creamy. You don't have to choose one or the other though. ... Yogurt is a great source of protein if you don't have any dairy tolerance issues. If you do, however, you don't have to go for the juice option
