NOTES

1. - Fibers

You use the whole fruit and not just the juice. This keeps the fibers in the smoothie.

2. - Substitutes

Yogurt - If you prefer not to use yogurt, make this smoothie with soy milk.
Honey - You can replace this with stevia or maple syrup. Or half a banana. And in June it may be that the strawberries are so sweet that extra sweetener is not necessary.
Strawberries - You can also substitute strawberries for raspberries, red currants, or blackberries.

3. - Storage

You could store this smoothie, but preferably not. The creaminess will be less and the vitamins will also deteriorate if you store it. So preferably make it fresh.

If you have made too much now, freeze it in an ice cube tray and store it in the freezer. You don't even have to let it thaw out completely. This smoothie is delicious as a slush.
