The Story Behind It

The Tale of Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Story updated

Smoothies have roots in Brazilian and Caribbean fruit-blending traditions, but the modern American smoothie boomed in the 1970s as blenders became common kitchen appliances and health food culture grew on the West Coast. Strawberry-banana became one of the most popular pairings for its natural sweetness and creamy texture.
