How do you make really sweet smoothies?
I’m a 15 year old who just got a blender. Anyway, I was wondering how they make those really good smoothies, like the strawberry coco frost smoothie at applebees, or the strawberry smoothie at outback. Those smoothies in restaurants are so ridiculously good, but in drink places the drinks rnt nearly as cold or sweet and their too thick. What is the secret to these drinks, and can I have some recipes for some really good smoothies with strawberry in them, thanks!
