Smoothies - :Fruit Info
You may use frozen fruit in a smoothie, if you wish.
Technique Tip:
Dairy products play a big role in most smoothies, but are not necessities.
If you
like creaminess, silken tofu can replace yogurt or soy milk can replace
cow's or
goat's milk. A tablespoon or more of canned cream of coconut can add
richness.
For a more sprightly taste, try cherry cider, cranberry or apple juice,
another
fruit nectar, or even ginger ale. Bananas give smoothies body and are mild
enough
to blend with most other flavors. Peel any fruit with a thick skin, such as
mangoes.
Thinner-skinned fruits such as peaches or plums can be peeled if you wish,
but it
is not necessary.
Try avoiding adding fruits with a lot of seeds, such as
blackberries,
unless you feel like straining it.
