Strawberry Blueberry Banana Smoothie brings summertime straight to your glass. Sweet and creamy, this good-for-you smoothie is an easy way to start your day or refuel in the afternoon.
My family loves smoothies and I make them several times a week either with our breakfasts or as snacks. Pink, purple, green, blue, brown, they come in countless colors and flavors. Strawberry Smoothies and Blueberry Banana Smoothies are some of our favorites that get made often.
A while back, I combined both of those smoothies into this one and it was an instant hit.
Strawberry Blueberry Banana Smoothie
This is a very simple combination that we all agree is delicious. I like to freeze all of the fruit ahead of time so that the smoothies get cold without any ice needed. On the rare occasion that I forget to pop some berries in the freezer in advance, I’ll add an ice cube or two but it waters down the flavor a bit.
When strawberries and blueberries are on sale I buy a ton to freeze so we always have smoothies on hand. If you prefer, ready frozen berries from the freezer section work beautifully in this smoothie recipe, too.
I prefer smoothies that are similar to a milkshake consistency and frozen bananas are the key. I buy extra bananas and simply peel them and put them into a ziploc bag in the freezer.
When I am ready to make a smoothie, I just grab however many I need and toss them in the blender. It’s also a great strategy for using bananas that are getting overripe and gives smoothies the perfect consistency.
Strawberry Blueberry Smoothie
A tasty strawberry, blueberry, and banana smoothie that’s perfect for breakfast, snacks or anytime you need a refreshing treat.
- Layer the bananas, blueberries, and strawberries in the blender. Drizzle with honey and add the milk.
- Puree until the mixture reaches a thick, creamy consistency. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
Note: I love the creaminess that whole milk gives this smoothie recipe. For a dairy-free alternative, coconut milk, soy milk, or almond milk will work just fine as an alternative. I recommend using an unsweetened non-dairy milk as the bananas and honey add all the sweetness this smoothie needs.
Banana Strawberry Blueberry Smoothie
Feel free to adjust the amount of honey in this recipe to your taste. I’ve found that letting my bananas get almost overripe before I freeze them makes for a sweeter smoothie that needs less honey.
If you like a sweeter smoothie (or are making this for a kid with a major sweet tooth), try adding more honey by the half-teaspoon until you get the level of sweetness you’re looking for.
With fruit smoothies, the sweetness of the frozen fruits will have a direct impact on the flavor of the smoothie. The same combination of ingredients that tasted perfect one day, might need an extra boost of sweetener another day. Play with the ingredients to find the perfect smoothie combination for your tastes.
Smoothie Recipes
I’ve made what seems like hundreds of different kinds of smoothies over the years. Everyone in my family likes them and they’re a great way to get some extra fruit into our diets.
For a smoothie with a hint of tropical flavors try a Pineapple Banana Smoothie and a Pineapple Orange Banana Smoothie. This Pina Colada Smoothie is a sweet and refreshing summertime treat, too.

Vikki says
Great berry banana strawberry smoothie my lil Girl is sick with Strep throat hard for her to eat anything but the smoothie she loved it easy for her to swallow thank you for the recipe
Patricia says
Simply yummy!! I substituted regular milk with vanilla almond milk and it turned out really tasty.
Lindsay says
Does it taste the same if the banana isn’t frozen?
Mary says
Yes, the flavor is the same. However, the smoothie won’t be as cold or thick.
Stewart McKinnon says
It would be nice to have this with re-proportioned ingredients for single-serve. I don’t want leftover smoothie. What do you do with the rest to keep it good?
Anonymous says
I just did 1/2 of the recipe and it turned out great
Lujain says

Mary says
I’m so happy you like the recipe, Lujain!
Tim H. says
I like to to put 5 teaspoons of sugar, add strawberries,blueberries,and banana(all fresh not frozen). Add milk and a little chocolate syrup. Blend together and always comes out perfectly. Really isn’t all that sweet and it’s filling. Best part is, that it tastes excellent!! Have also added strawberry yogurt to it, which makes the smoothie a bit creamier. Best drink and snack combo ever!!
Renee says
Does it taste good with the chocolate syrup
Brenda says
Best smoothie I’ve had and it’s healthy! No yogurt which is great so it doesn’t have a sour taste. I used a pretty ripe banana and split recipe in half
Mary Younkin says
I’m so glad you liked the smoothie, Brenda!
esteg says

Larry says
Instead of milk,Ibuse coconut water and i use ice made from coconut water……
Ummm
Yummy..
Mary Younkin says
That sounds delicious, Larry.
Nancy says
I read for those who don’t like bananas,
Use 1/2 cup of frozen mangos for each banana! It helps give it the smoothie texture! That’s my next try!
Mary Younkin says
That’s a great tip, Nancy. Let me know how you like it!
Natalia says
An okay smoothie. Way too much banana flavor and it was too thick. Meh
Mary Younkin says
The beauty of a smoothie is how adaptable they are, Natalia. I always tell people to think of it as a starting point.
Hello! says
Delicous! Filled me up and was such a reward to my mouth! I like that it has no yogurt, because Im on a diet! Also I did 1/2 the recipe the second time I did it and it was really good!
Mary Younkin says
That’s awesome. I’m so glad it was a hit!
Ruth Swatsenberg says
Hello, can you use 2% milk instead of whole milk?
Mary Younkin says
Sure thing. It will work fine.
Robert Metz says
Can you make it in a Food Processor if you don’t have a blender?
Mary Younkin says
I’m guessing that will work fine, Robert.
Kimberly Davis says
Delicious! I started with 1 1/2 cups of milk and added a little more as I went so it wasn’t too thin. It turned out great! Even my very picky 4yr old loved it😍
Mary Younkin says
I’m so happy to hear that you loved it, Kimberly!
Bryan says
This looks great, will definitely try👍🏽
Mary Younkin says
You will enjoy it, Bryan.
Chloe says
It was delicious but it had a bit too much banana (for someone who doesn’t like them very much.) could of used only one banana. I also added more honey to overpower it.
Mary Younkin says
Glad to hear that the smoothie was a hit, Chloe. Banana can be a strong flavor for some people; I’m glad you were able to find a way to make the recipe work for you! Enjoy, and happy cooking.
