Strawberry Smoothie
Why this recipe works
- Ready in minutes: Everything is blended together in one step, making it a fast drink for busy mornings or quick snacks.
- Naturally creamy: Greek yoghurt adds thickness and a gentle tang without needing cream or ice cream.
- Fruit-first sweetness: Honey rounds out the strawberries without overpowering their fresh, fruity flavour.

Ingredient notes
- Use ripe strawberries: Ripe, fragrant strawberries give the smoothie the best natural sweetness and colour.
- Keep the milk chilled: Well-chilled milk helps the smoothie blend up cold and refreshing without needing extra chilling time.
- Adjust the honey to taste: Start with less honey, blend, then add more only if the strawberries need extra sweetness.
Texture tips
- Blend until fully smooth: Give the blender enough time to break down the strawberries completely for a frothy, even texture.
- Loosen if needed: If the smoothie is too thick to pour easily, blend in a little more milk until it reaches the right consistency.
Timing notes
- Best served straight away: The smoothie has its freshest flavour and lightest froth immediately after blending.
- If storing briefly: Refrigerate in a sealed container and shake or re-blend before drinking, as the mixture may settle.
