Ingredients
  

Smoothie Base
  • 1 cup frozen strawberries
  • 0.5 banana ripe
  • 0.5 cup coconut milk
  • 0.25 cup plain yogurt
  • 1 tsp honey or maple syrup
Garnish
  • 1 tsp shredded coconut unsweetened
  • 1 strawberry fresh, sliced

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Measuring Cups and Spoons
  • Tall Glass

Method
 

  1. Gather your ingredients: frozen strawberries, banana, coconut milk, plain yogurt, and honey.
  2. Pour the coconut milk and plain yogurt into the bottom of your blender pitcher first.
  3. Drizzle the honey directly into the liquid mixture to prevent it from sticking to the sides or freezing to the fruit.
  4. Add the half banana and top with the frozen strawberries.
  5. Secure the blender lid and blend on low speed for 10 seconds, then increase to high speed.
  6. Blend on high for 45 to 60 seconds until the mixture is completely silky, thick, and uniformly pink.
  7. Pour the smooth mixture into a tall glass.
  8. Top with a sprinkle of shredded coconut and a fresh sliced strawberry on the rim. Serve immediately.

Notes

For a thicker, ice-cream like texture, use half of a frozen banana instead of room temperature. To make it vegan, swap the dairy yogurt for a plant-based yogurt and the honey for maple syrup.
