Kim’s Tips
Tips
- Make sure you are using a ripe banana in the smoothie as they are much sweeter than unripe bananas.
- Feel free to start blending with one cup of ice, then add more if the texture is too thin.
- Honey is an optional ingredient to make the smoothie sweeter if necessary. Use as much or as little as you like or omit completely.
- The ice is great for creating a thick smoothie. If desired, the ice can be omitted. Use all frozen fruit in its place instead.
Variations
- Change up the fruit you use by adding strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries in place of the blueberries.
- This smoothie can also be made into a green smoothie by adding spinach or kale.
- If you want a little extra sweetness, add a tablespoon of maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Add additional fiber to the smoothie by adding a handful of oats or chia seeds.
- For a tropical twist, add mango, pineapple, or papaya along with the banana.
- Use a scoop of your favorite protein powder in the mix to add even more protein to the blueberry smoothie.
Storing and Freezing
Storing: This creamy blueberry smoothie is best served immediately as it will have the best smooth and creamy texture.

*Use the ice to thicken the smoothie. It’s very thin without any ice. However, 2-3 cups of ice thickens it nicely. If you decide not to use ice, try using all frozen fruit instead and adjust the milk as desired.
*The honey is optional, and can be adjusted based on how sweet you like your smoothies.
*Use 1 large banana or 2 small bananas.
