What’s the best combination of ingredients for a milkshake/smoothie?
Category: Smoothie Q&A
My personal favorite is vanilla ice cream, bananas and orange juice but I’d like to know some other good combinations. Any suggestions?

Coffee ice cream, two healthy squirts of Hershey’s syrup and a shot of espresso.
Raspberry sherbet, fresh peaches and milk.
Vanilla ice cream, peaches and orange juice. Then stir a little raspberry puree through to make a ribbon of flavor and make it really pretty
Vanilla yogurt, crushed ice, a whole banana, a whole peach and a half cup of blueberries…low fat- and anti-oxidants too!

Choc marshmallow ice cream, shot of hershey’s DARK syrup, and milk (my son’s favorite) Raspberries and vanilla ice cream, little bit of that choc syrup. I am going to make one right now.
Fresh wild blueberries (not the crappy ones from the store) that I picked from around my neighbourhood, a couple scoops of vanilla ice cream and a little bit of sugar. Yummy my favorite!! Blueberries are the best fruit ever!! Especially since they are free and grow all around where I live in Northern Ontario Canada.
I like to take peanut butter with a banana some ice and a scoop of vanilla ice cream and then some milk its just a mix as you go thing as much peanut butter as you like and as much ice as you like you can leave the ice out of if you like it more creamy than icy

Pineapple Strawberrie Banana Smoothie
Ingredients:
3 cups fresh orange juice or other fresh fruit juice that is not made from a frozen concentrate
2 cups frozen pineapple chunks (use fresh pineapple)
2 cups frozen strawberries (fresh or whole frozen, non-sweetened berries)
2 cups frozen banana chunks (2 medium bananas)
2 to 3 packages Equal brand sweetener, Splenda or other – optional
Method:
1. Remove crown and bottom and slice rind off of pineapple, quarter it lengthwise and remove core also slicing lengthwise. Slice pineapple crosswise into quarter 1- inch slices. Slice bananas into 2- inch chunks. If using fresh strawberries, wash, core and pat dry.
2. Place fruit on baking sheets, cover with plastic wrap, and freeze until solid, 30 to 60 minutes. This can be done well in advance. (I like to have frozen fruit on hand in freezer bags. After the fruit has frozen you can put it in a freezer bad or plastic covered container. The fruit has to be frozen in separate pieces on a baking sheet before you put it into a container or it will stick together in a mass.)
3. Place juice, fruit and sweetener if using in blender or food processor and process until smooth (If fruit is too hard to process, allow it to soften for 1 or 2 minutes before continuing.)
4. Serve at once or transfer or cover and chill for up to 60 minutes before serving. Smoothies are best served immediate after blending.

Note: You can use any combination of frozen fruit and juice you choose. The key is to use fresh juice not from concentrate and frozen fresh fruit. Juices from concentrates contain added sugars like corn syrup. Frozen peaches, blackberries, blue berries, raspberries, melons, etc. can all be used. You can also use frozen fruits that you purchase from the frozen foods section of the grocery store. These products work just as well as fruits you buy fresh and freeze your-self. You can use a combination of frozen and fresh fruit. However, the smoothie will not be as thick. Do not use canned fruit.
Jamba Juice smoothies also contain ice and low fat frozen yogurt or sherbet as well as other optional additives.
