Ingredients

Scale

Fruit

2 cups frozen strawberries (thawed for 5 minutes)
2 medium kiwis (peeled and cut in half)

Dairy

½ cup milk
¼ cup plain Greek yogurt

Others

1–2 tablespoons sweetener (optional, such as honey, agave, or sugar)

Instructions

Prepare the ingredients: Thaw the frozen strawberries for about 5 minutes to soften them slightly, and peel and halve the kiwis so they are ready for blending.
Load the blender: Add all ingredients to your blender, placing softer items like the milk and yogurt closer to the blades, and the firmer fruits, like the halved kiwis and strawberries, farther away for optimal blending.
Blend the smoothie: Start blending on low speed and gradually increase to high. Blend for about 1 to 2 minutes or until the mixture achieves a smooth and creamy consistency. If the blender struggles, pause to stir or add extra liquid. Scrape down the sides to ensure everything is evenly mixed.
Adjust sweetness: Taste your smoothie and add additional sweetener as desired. Re-blend briefly if more sweetener is added to ensure it’s fully incorporated.
Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses, garnish with diced strawberries and kiwis if desired, and serve immediately with a straw for a refreshing experience.

Notes

You can substitute milk with any plant-based milk for a dairy-free version.
Adjust the sweetness according to your preference or omit sweetener for a natural fruit taste.
For a colder smoothie, use frozen kiwis or add ice cubes during blending.
Greek yogurt adds creaminess and protein but can be omitted or replaced with a vegan yogurt alternative.
Use a high-powered blender for best results to achieve a smooth texture.
