Well, hello there! Let me tell you a bit about the origin of smoothies and milkshakes!
Smoothies can be traced back to ancient cultures in South America and Asia, where they were made by blending fruits and other ingredients into a pulp. The modern-day smoothie as we know it, however, originated in the 1930s when a California fruit stand owner named Julius Freed started making blended fruit drinks with an electric mixer. These drinks eventually became known as “Julius” drinks and were sold at various locations around the United States.
As for milkshakes, their history can be traced back to the late 19th century when the term “milkshake” was used to describe a frothy, alcoholic drink that was made with whiskey and eggs. However, it wasn’t until the early 20th century when the milkshake as we know it today was born. At that time, a Walgreens employee named Ivar “Pop” Coulson added two scoops of ice cream to a malted milk drink and shook it up in a blender, creating the first true milkshake.
Over time, both smoothies and milkshakes have become incredibly popular and have evolved to include a wide range of ingredients and flavors. Nowadays, you can find everything from classic strawberry milkshakes to green smoothies made with kale and spinach. It’s amazing to see how these drinks have evolved over time, isn’t it?
Well, well, well, do I have a treat for you today! Are you a smoothie lover or a milkshake enthusiast? Can’t decide between the two? Fear not, because I’ve got the solution for you – the “Smoothshake”!
That’s right, my dear friend, the Smoothshake (the new unique name coined by Travel-and-Home!) is the perfect combination of a smoothie and a milkshake. It’s like having the best of both worlds in one delicious drink! Just imagine the fruity goodness of a smoothie combined with the creamy indulgence of a milkshake. Are you drooling yet? Because I sure am!
Now, you might be wondering how this heavenly concoction came to be. Well, let me tell you – it all started when I couldn’t decide between making a smoothie or a milkshake. I mean, they’re both so good, how was I supposed to choose? That’s when it hit me – why not combine the two and create a Smoothshake? And let me tell you, it was a game-changer!
I’ve been experimenting with different Smoothshake recipes, and let me tell you, the possibilities are endless! From classic strawberry banana Smoothshakes (which I’ll share today) to decadent chocolate peanut butter Smoothshakes, there’s a flavor for every craving. So, are you ready to join me on this Smoothshake adventure? Let’s get blending, my friend!

Smoothies can be customized to individual tastes and dietary needs. For example, you can use non-dairy milk or skip the yogurt to make it vegan, or add protein powder for a post-workout boost. The possibilities are endless!
Tips:
If you want it to be a bit more milkshake and less smoothie you can always add a bit more milk at the end.
I used a blender that is also an ice crusher. So I used ice cubes instead of crushed ice.
