Today’s Starbucks Strawberry Smoothie Recipe is one of the best kept secrets around! I used to love buying the classic Starbucks Smoothie because they were a refreshing and healthy treat. Our copycat version of Starbucks Strawberry Smoothie is packed with strawberries, banana, vanilla greek yogurt, and more. You’ll find smoothies at Starbucks however they’re not the original flavors we all adored. No worries though…we’ve got copycat versions of all the original Starbucks Smoothies for you to enjoy!  

Why we love our Starbucks Strawberry Smoothie Recipe

We love our Starbucks Strawberry Smoothie Recipe because it’s filled with oodles of healthy ingredients that whip together in just a few minutes! I love to pack fruit and veggies into my smoothies for a quick pick-me-up during the day.

Who doesn’t love saving $$$ by making their own copycat version right at home! It’s a great way to still get the same flavors of the original Starbucks Smoothie.

Does Starbucks have Smoothies?

Unfortunately, Starbucks removed the original smoothies from their menu a few years ago! They have smoothies available on their current menu however they’re not the old school ones we grew up loving.

Don’t fret. We’ve got ya covered with our Starbucks copycat versions!

How to make Starbucks Strawberry Smoothie Recipe

Combine all ingredients and blend on high until smooth!

Smoothie 101

• Invest in a heavy duty blender; I’ve used a Blend Tec for well over a decade now and I love it! It’s powerful enough to blend frozen fruit and vegetables smooth, smooth, smooth! 
• I prefer using frozen fruits and vegetables in my smoothies so they have a thicker consistency. 
• Freeze extra fruits and vegetables as they are just beginning to turn over-ripe; I use gallon plastic zip top freezer bags to toss them in.
• Freeze fresh produce to use later- I find they last just fine for up to 4 weeks. ie: spinach or mixed salad greens, baby carrots, cucumbers, banana’s broken into four pieces, sliced/cored apples and pears, extra berries, peeled/segmented oranges and clementines, grapes, and the list goes on! 
• Extra nutrient add in’s are always good try adding: vanilla and chocolate protein powders, dry oats, a small handful of nuts, peanut butter, flavored yogurt or kefir, and more. 

Super food add in’s: gogi berries, coconut oil, avocado, acai or cacoa powder, chia or hemp or flax seeds, etc!

Heading back to Culinary School

Back in 2013…I went back to college! It wasn’t as scary as I thought it might be to enter college as an older (yes, I just admitted that!) adult. I’ve valued it so much more and taken it waaayyyy more seriously then when I was 18 years old.  

If going back to college is something you’ve always wanted to do—just do it! Going back to learn about something you love is fun! 🙂

My exciting Culinary School journey began in fall of 2013 and you can read about Culinary School!

Our Starbucks Strawberry Smoothie Recipe is a fun and simple breakfast to enjoy this week!

Thanks for being a part of the CWR blog-family!

All the love,
