Related: About this forumWhat are your favorite smoothie/juice recipes?
My family just recently bought both a blender and a juice maker, and we're looking around for some good smoothie and juice recipes.
What are your favorites?

(14,733 posts)Orange juice and passion fruit are a delicious mix in my books. I assume you could 'smoothify' such a mix.

My recipe just kindof evolved,,,,
Cup of water
heaping tablespoon of coconut oil
tablespoon of ground flaxseed
1 banana
handful of frozen cherries (about 8)
handful of frozen strawberries (about 5)
half a handful frozen blueberries
3 or 4 frozen peach slices
3 or 4 ice cubes
if I have other fresh fruit I add a few grapes or a slice of pineapple
btw if my bananas are getting too ripe on the counter I peel them, break them in half, freeze them on a cookie sheet, then pack them in a freezer bag (these totally mess up the consistency I like tho then I don't do ice)
YUM,,, now I need to go make one

(20,234 posts)but I do have a smoothie for lunch every workday. It's usually something from fruit (banana, pineapple, berries), and some kind of vegetable (celery, spinach, kale, winter squash), a protein (protein powder or nut butter), ground flax seed, and nonmilk-milk like almond or coconut milk or juice. And ideally, something to give it body, so either the banana or winter squash, or avocado, or yogurt.

(106,886 posts)and vodka. Garnished with orange slices and mint.
LOL, it's good.
Day to day I like mixed berries juiced with a big glob of vanilla yogurt thinned to taste with a fruit juice. Or I'll go with bananas, vanilla yogurt and a chocolate protein drink. Cinnamon is always on top.
