A smoothie is a blended and sometimes sweetened
beverage made from fresh fruit and in special cases can
contain chocolate or peanut butter. In addition to fruit, many
smoothies include crushed ice, frozen fruit, honey or contain
syrup and ice ingredients. They have a milkshake-like
consistency that is thicker than slush drinks. They can also
contain milk, yogurt or ice cream.
Smoothies are often marketed to health-conscious
people, and some restaurants offer add-ins such as soy
milk, whey powder, green tea, herbal supplements, or
nutritional supplement mixes.
Smoothies became widely available in the United States
in the late 1960s when ice cream vendors and health
food stores began selling them.
By the 1990s and 2000s, smoothies became available at
mainstream cafés and coffee shops and in pre-bottled
versions at supermarkets all over the world.
