Giving it a twist

Use melon or a slightly over-ripe mango instead of the banana. Or add a pot of low-fat natural yogurt to make an extra-creamy smoothie.

    Very nice, I added a hint of lime juice and it worked well.

    It was really yummy but I reccommend using milk instead of water or juice. The milk is thicker and makes it frothy and creamy, whereas the water just makes it sludgey and the juice tastes bitter with all that other fruit...could be better...

    Have a smoothies for breakfast every morning with all types of fruit but using a banana as the base. Better with fat free milk and the add it a tablespoon or two of oats bran. Keeps you full for much longer ..precut and freeze yr fruit in sets for easy on the run breakfasts.

    I didn't have as much berries but I was just trying to use up my ripe bananas and berries. I added apple juice and then some Vimto sauce (that I normally use for ice cream), instead of honey. If I hadn't done this recipe as I explained, and did it properly, I'm sure it would taste even better.
