I LOVE my Vitamix and make smoothies all the time ... using Choc. Hemp Powder, Frozen Strawberries, a Banana, Plain Yogurt, and some Hemp Milk. Yum!! Tastes just like a chocolate strawberry shake. I also add a couple of ice cubes (even though the strawberries are frozen), they add a little texture to the drink.
I also have a Champion Juicer from the late 80's. It's nice to run frozen strawberries and bananas through the homogenizer which makes an ice cream-like fruit blend.
