Preparation method
Prep: 10 minutes1.
Place the bananas, apricots and their juice, yogurt, mint and honey in a food processor or blender and blend to a smooth puree, scraping down the sides of the container once or twice. Add the orange juice and blend briefly until mixed.
2.
Pour the smoothie into tall glasses and garnish with sprigs of mint, if desired.
Variation
For a strawberry and banana smoothie, instead of apricots use 220 g strawberries. Reserve 4 strawberries and blend the remainder with the bananas and yogurt (there is no need to add honey or mint). Mix in apple juice in place of the orange juice. Stir in the grated rind and juice of 1 lime. Pour into glasses and decorate each one with a reserved strawberry skewered on a cocktail stick, if desired.
