• 1 teaspoon honey (optional)
• Ice to taste

How to prepare it step by step?

Preparation

1. Carefully wash the strawberries under cold water and remove the green stem. Cut into small pieces to facilitate blending and enhance the natural sweet flavor.
2. Peel the ripe banana and cut it into pieces. For a thicker and creamier texture, use a previously frozen banana, which also eliminates the need for ice cream.
3. Place the fruits in the blender and pour the 200 ml of milk or vegetable drink, such as oats, almonds, or soy. These options make the recipe ideal for vegans or lactose intolerants.
4. Add a teaspoon of honey if desired to sweeten the smoothie slightly; if the fruits are very ripe, it may not be necessary. Add ice to taste for a colder, thicker shake.
5. Blend everything at high speed for 30–40 seconds until you obtain a homogeneous mixture, without lumps and with a smooth consistency. If too thick, add an extra splash of milk.
6. Serve immediately in tall glasses to maintain creaminess and freshness. Decorate with half a strawberry, banana slices, or some chia seeds for added texture and visual appeal.
