Method 4 of 4: Strawberry and Blueberry Creamy Smoothie
Step 1. Add the vanilla ice cream to the blender
If you prefer, you can replace all or part of it with fruit-flavored ice cream, strawberry for example. More vanilla gives it a creamier flavor, while other types of ice cream can give the smoothie a fruity, sweeter flavor.
Step 2. Add the berries
Pour 400g of strawberries and 400g of blueberries into the blender for a delicious blend of flavors. Change the aspect ratio according to your preferences.
Step 3. Add the milk
Milk makes sure that the smoothie is not too thick to drink. It doesn't take much, but don't be afraid to add more if the final product is too thick for you.
Step 4. Also add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice if you prefer
A little lemon juice isn't essential for a delicious smoothie, but it can add a sour note. Do not add too much, otherwise the sour taste of the lemon can start to clash with the creaminess of the final product.
Step 5. Add 10-20 ice cubes
The more ice you put on, the more watered down the smoothie will become once it begins to melt. Drink it quickly if you take too much.
Step 6. Blend, garnish and enjoy
Serve the smoothie with a scoop of whipped cream on top and a strawberry or two slices on the rim of the glass. Enjoy this delicious drink in complete relaxation.
