Blueberry & Banana Smoothie
- 1 cup orange juice
- 1 banana (over-ripe, fresh or frozen)
- 2 cups frozen blueberries
- In a blender, blend the orange juice and banana (using the "blend" or "smoothie" mode) until you get a consistent orange-banana juice.
- With the blender still going, use the hole in the lid and slowly add the blueberries to the juice.
- Slow is important - if you go too fast, you get frozen-fruit suspended above the blades and have to stop the thing to shove all the fruit to the bottom so that the blades catch it.
- You'll know when to stop blending when the smoothie has turned a beautiful shade of deep-purple and it has a thick, jamba-juice-smoothie-like consistency.
- If you have blueberry-banana juice, with a layer of gelatinous fruit on top, you've blended it for too long.
