About this smoothie

Strawberry and banana have been a standard smoothie combination for decades, because the tart berries and creamy banana balance each other so well. This version uses water rather than milk, so it stays light and fruity, and a little nectarine adds extra aroma.

Strawberries are known to be a good source of vitamin C. The smoothie suits breakfast, a snack for children or a quick refresher in summer.
