Strawberry Pomegranate Smoothie

I love using strawberries as the base of smoothies because they are full of delicious flavor and color that compliments so many other ingredients.  I use a banana in this recipe to help keep the smoothie thick, with a great texture and a bit sweet.

But the banana flavor blends into the background and you hardly notice it in this recipe.  As always, the browner the banana the better because it will lend more sweetness to the overall smoothie.

If pomegranates aren't in season, you can leave them out and substitute milk for the pomegranate juice for a delicious strawberry smoothie.

Or you can use orange juice and enjoy a tropical strawberry orange smoothie.  The options are endless.

But if pomegranates are in season, you don't want to miss this incredible smoothie recipe!

What blender is best for smoothies and milkshakes?

There are many blenders you can use for making smoothies, milkshakes and frozen drinks, but I personally own the Vitamix 780 and think it is simply the best.  I get smooth, consistent results every single time which is exactly what I want for all my drinks!  You can buy your own Vitamix 780 HERE.  It is my favorite and I know you will love it too!
