Ingredients
– 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries

– 1 cup yogurt (Greek or non-dairy alternative)
– 1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based)
– 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
– Ice cubes (for a colder smoothie, optional)
Instructions
Creating a Strawberry Banana Smoothie is simple and straightforward. Follow these easy steps:
1. Gather Your Ingredients: Collect all the ingredients needed for the smoothie.
2. Prepare the Strawberries: If using fresh strawberries, wash them thoroughly and remove the stems. If using frozen strawberries, there’s no need to thaw them.
3. Peel the Banana: Peel the ripe banana and slice it into smaller pieces for easier blending.
4. Add Ingredients to Blender: Place the strawberries, banana slices, yogurt, and milk into the blender. If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add honey or maple syrup to taste.
5. Blend Until Smooth: Blend all the ingredients on high speed until you achieve a creamy and smooth consistency. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more milk until it meets your desired texture.
6. Add Ice (Optional): If you want a colder smoothie, add ice cubes and blend again until crushed and well combined.
7. Taste and Adjust: Taste the smoothie and adjust the sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup, if desired.
8. Serve Immediately: Pour the smoothie into glasses right after blending to enjoy it fresh.
