I need a recipe for a smoothie?
Category: Smoothie Q&A
What is a smoothie that I could make my mom, who has a sore throat. She wants something cold that won’t hurt to swallow, sometimes orange juice can burn so don’t include that. I have frozen raspberries, blue berries, strawberry yogurt, peaches, apple strawberry banana juice, grape juice and milk/water. So can you give me a smoothie recipe?
There also is some other things i didn’t include that i have, so just give me a recipe and then i will see if i have the ingredients.

The best smoothie you can prepare to your mom is pineapple it is exactly the good amount of vitamin C and also helps with pain and swealing, Not milk. and if you add sugar not much because it hurts her throat.
If you add milk will only stay in her throat creating more mocus in her system.
well my fav smoothie is strawberry…just experiment,… so what if it doesnt taste amazing..it will make her troat feel better anyway

Fruit Smoothie:
1 frozen banana (best if cut into one-inch chunks, then frozen)
1-3 ice cubes
1/2 – 1 cup of fruit
1/4 to 1/2 cup of nonfat yogurt or ice milk. (*For an extra-nutritious smoothie, use 1/4 to 1/2 cup of orange juice or soy milk instead)
Add ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. It’s that easy.
Try these suggestions :
One cup of any of these easy-to-find fruits: strawberries (hulled), peaches (fresh or canned), apple slices (or juice).
Not-so-easy to find, but worth the effort, are these exotic combos:
Tangerine and mango nectars
Mango, papaya, honeydew and cantaloupe
Peach yogurt with pineapple, orange and banana juice (available premixed in juice section of your local market)
Kiwi, strawberries and pineapple juice
Apricots, mango and lemonade
Papaya, raspberries and any juice
