Strawberry Banana Smoothie done My Way

This is my take on this well loved smoothie. I dont like to start a drink off with ice in order to make it that slushie smooth since ice is water and water delutes. So I always find an alternative to the ice in my frozen drinks. This is so delicious and is made out of such yummy ingredients you cant help but love them. For an adult version add rum at the end.

1 single serving frozen italian ice, strawberry flavor
(i used lindys, you can also use luigis)
1 large banana
6 large strawberries green removed
strawberry banana nectar
additional strawberries to decorate glass

1.Place strawberry italian ice in blender and seperate with fork a bit so its not one solid chunk (save the italian ice cup)

2 Cut banana in about 3 pieces and toss in on top of italian ice

3Toss large strawberries in on top of all this

4Fill italian ice cup 1/2 to 3/4 full with strawberry banana nectar

5Using crush ice button on low or the pulse button on blender, blend till smooth

6Pour into your favorite smoothie glass and garnish with a strawberry.
