*Hints

Frozen fruits make smoothies thicker

Yoghurt make smoothies creamier

You need to adjust the amount of liquid depending on the fruits

Honey is a good natural sweetener

When you buy bananas , peel them, slice them, put in a sealed container and freeze. Then you can just take out a few chunks at a time and your smoothies will be colder and nicer flavored.
