Say hello to the most beautiful smoothie recipes on the internet! Smoothies are such a great healthy breakfast idea and, speaking from experience, dinner idea too! That’s right, it’s my go-to when I don’t have anything to eat.

Smoothies are all about finding that perfect ratio of fruit to liquid. That’s why you’ll see in our basic smoothie recipe, we have about 1 cup of liquid to 2 cups of frozen fruit.

What goes in a smoothie recipe?

One unique thing about our smoothie recipes, is that we do not use ice. Instead, we use a 2:1 ratio of frozen fruit to liquid.

  • 2 cups frozen fruit (banana, strawberries, mixed berry, pineapple, tropical blend, etc.)
  • 1 cup liquid (orange juice, almond milk, coconut water, coconut milk, water)

We say 2:1 with a grain of salt because everyone has their own preference. Some people like to drink smoothies with a straw and others like it thick enough to be eaten with a spoon. So, start with 1 cup of liquid and add more as you wish.

In addition to the 2:1 ratio of fruit to liquid, you can also add other ingredients such as protein powder, greens, Greek yogurt, seeds, etc.

Best Blender for Smoothies

We have a Vitamix and it runs you about $350 on Amazon. I do not have a single bad thing to say about this beast. It’s super powerful, easy to clean, and it makes making smoothies along with other things a breeze. I can tell you right now that this is the best blender I have ever owned and there’s no turning back.

If you’re looking for something a bit smaller and the perfect size for smoothies, we recommend the Beast Blender. We actually just got it a few months ago and it works like a charm and is much cheaper than the Vitamix.
