1 Pour orange juice into a blender and add strawberries. Orange juice adds sweetness and sourness.

2 Add ice to a blender. Adding hard ice after the strawberries will allow the blender blades to work more efficiently.

3 Add yogurt to blender. Plain yogurt will add a sour flavor and allow more fresh fruit flavor to emerge. You can also add ice cream and / or strawberry juice if desired.

4 Mix for 5 seconds, then pause, then mix again. Repeat until tender.

5 Add milk to the mixture. Instead of pouring milk directly into the orange juice, which can curdle the milk, add it last when the mixture dilutes the acidity of the orange juice.

6 Mix for 5 seconds, then pause, then mix again. Repeat until a smooth consistency is obtained.

Method 2 of 4: Strawberry and Blackberry Smoothies

1. 1 Pour orange juice into a blender and add strawberries and blackberries. Orange juice provides additional sweetness and acidity.
2. 2 Add ice to a blender. Adding hard ice after the fruit will allow the blenders to mix more efficiently.
3. 3 Add yogurt to blender (optional). Plain yogurt will add a sour flavor and allow more fresh fruit flavor to emerge.
4. 4 Mix for 5 seconds, then pause, then mix again. Repeat until a smooth consistency is obtained.

Method 3 of 4: Honey Strawberry Smoothie

Honey is a healthy alternative to ice cream or sugar.

1. 1 Pour 1 cup of yogurt (2 if thirsty) into a blender.
2. 2 Add 6 strawberries. Mix until no lumps remain. If mixing stops, it means pockets of air have formed. Use a rubber spatula to nudge the smoothie.
3. 3 Add chopped banana (optional). Mix.
4. 4 Add honey to taste. Use about a tablespoon to start, then mix. Taste, if more honey is needed add and blend until desired flavor is obtained.
5. 5 Pour into a tall (or short, but tall) glass. Enjoy!

Method 4 of 4: Vanilla Strawberry Smoothie

1. 1 Place the strawberries in a blender.
2. 2 Pour in milk.
3. 3 Add strawberries or vanilla yogurt.
4. 4 Mix.
5. 5 Add vanilla or strawberry ice cream. Pour in vanilla extract, about 1-2 drops. Finally, add orange juice and ice cubes.
6. 6 Mix all ingredients until fully blended.
7. 7 Pour into serving glasses.

Tips

• Add more ice for extra ice flakes.
• You can use fresh fruit, but frozen is better. This will make the smoothie colder and may eliminate the need for adding ice (depending on your preference).
• For parties and guests, try serving in ice cream glasses with spoons. Add whipped cream and chopped strawberries for decoration.
• Try freshly squeezed orange juice. Sometimes orange juice from a bottle can add bitterness.
• Adding ice cream will taste more like smoothies.
• If the smoothie isn't sweet enough for you, add 1 ½ teaspoon of sugar or honey.
• If you want a creamier smoothie, add milk or extra ice cream.

Warnings

• Remember to close the blender lid before mixing.
• Don't drink too quickly. You can freeze your brains.
• Be careful with sharp objects. This sounds simple, but please be careful. For my own sake.
• Remember to cut off the stems of the strawberries.
