Other forms: smoothies
A smoothie is a thick cold drink blended from fruit. A mango smoothie, blend a smoothie, a green smoothie.
Blending is not the same as juicing: a smoothie keeps the fibre where a juice throws it away, which is most of the nutritional difference between them. In older slang a smoothie is a suave and rather too charming man.
