Smoothies are one of my absolute favourite things about warmer weather: berries and nectarines come back into season, and suddenly surviving by eating only mashed potatoes and gravy seems less appealing. Short of blitzing up a mix of sunscreen, white white and coconut oil (not recommended), this smoothie is the easiest way to get summer in a glass. Of course, there are no rules: substitute banana for yoghurt, leave out the mint, use strawberry jam instead of honey: whatever blows your hair back. My only advice is not to skimp on the strawberries: they’re not so expensive at the moment, and that vibrant colour is necessary for it to taste perfect.
If this isn’t quite the fruit smoothie you’re looking for, try this Asian pawpaw milkshake.
Ingredients
– Half a punnet of strawberries (about 200 grams)
– 1 passionfruit
– 3 tablespoons of greek yoghurt
– Handful of mint
– Honey to taste (the fruit is quite tart, so you might need more than you’d think: I ended up using about three tablespoons)
Method
You know how to do this. Just don’t blitz it into oblivion: the speckles are quite pretty.
