Served Smoothies products for sale online in Zambia

Smoothies are thick, creamy beverages usually blended from puréed fruits, vegetables, juices, yogurt, nuts, seeds, and/or dairy or non-dairy milk.

Most smoothies include frozen produce or ice cubes to give the final product the cool, icy consistency of a milkshake. However, their flavour profiles vary depending on the ingredients used.

Smoothies can be classified into the following categories:

• Fruit smoothies - this kind of smoothie usually features one or more types of fruit blended with fruit juice, water, milk, or ice cream.
• Green smoothies - these pack leafy green vegetables and fruit blended with water, juice, or milk. They are heavier in veggies than regular smoothies, though they often include a little fruit for sweetness.
• Protein smoothies - usually start with one fruit or vegetable and a liquid, as well as a major protein source like Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, silken tofu, or protein powder.

Smoothies can be served at breakfast and/or lunch and can easily be adapted to provide the desired number of items or components. Prepare each serving with ½ cup yogurt and ½ cup fruit to provide two meal components. Pair with a whole grain–rich item to make a complete meal!

You can quickly have too much of a good thing. According to the national Eatwell Guide, a serving of smoothie (or juice) is 150ml.
