Throw your chosen ingredients into a blender along with half a cup of
ice, and have a blast! You'll need a blender with some power, and a
tight-fitting lid. Put frozen ingredients in first - make sure they are smaller than a
golf ball so they get completely blended. Next add liquid ingredients,
fasten lid and blend on high speed for thirty seconds. Stop and examine
your smoothie. Unjam any chunks that might have gotten wedged on the bottom,
and blend for thirty more seconds.
