(Be aware that they’re additionally much less candy, so you’ll have so as to add some honey or one other sweetener.)
- Add the Milk First. This helps create a vortex within the blender, pulling the stable elements in direction of the blade and making it much less susceptible to stopping. If the blender does cease, simply flip it off, stir, and switch it on once more; if it occurs a second time, you most likely want a splash extra milk.
- Regulate as Wanted. You can also make this strawberry banana smoothie as thick or as skinny as you’d like. If I would like it thicker with out including extra fruit, I add ice cubes. To skinny it out, merely add extra water or milk. Simply you’ll want to use a conservative quantity so that you don’t find yourself going too far within the different course!
