Sunday Smoothie time again, this time we have a Strawberry Colada smoothie
I always call all the mixes with fruit a smoothie, but since I’m searching for smoothies for my blogs I found out that you have different kind of fruit drinks.
But what’s the difference between then?
Smoothie
A smoothie is mostly frozen fruit with yoghurt, cream, milk, custard or mascarpone added. It looks like a milkshake and it’s nice to drink it cold.
Shake
A shake is not thick as a smoothie, because you use fresh fruit and not the frozen ones. To make this shake a little more thick, you can also add yoghurt, milk or ice-cream.
Lassie
A Lassie is an Indian frink, with fruit or vegetables with yoghurt, water en a few spices.
Frappé
A frappé is a fruit mixed with ice to make the drink Ice-cold.
And from all these drinks are a lot of different variations. You see a lot of green smoothies, which are mostly with vegetables. Or smoothies with coffee and ice-cream, to make it more look like a dessert.
So to make it a little bit easier, I just do like a lot of people, and call everything a smoothie;-). Enjoy this Strawberry Colada
