Blending fruits/veggies while visiting as a tourist in thailand.

i love smoothies that I make here with my Sharp EM-ICE blender I got from Powerbuy I think it was for 890b over a year ago - but I am sure a non brand name one would last a while, but maybe not the way that I make smoothies.

I like to freeze all the fruit and then add 0% fat milk and blend, you can make it like McDonalds style milk shakes, but no added sugar (I know there is a lot of sugar already fruit).

Best fruit to use...

Bananas - got 13 for 15b last night and now frozen and ready to blend.

Mangos - think these must be in season now as I see a lot for sale - I just peel, squash all the flesh off with my hands into a bag and freeze

Strawberries - I get these from Makro already frozen - not had any in a while as Bananas are so cheap, and strawberries from Makro are not that sweet, but OK mixed with banana and/or mango.

Anyone suggest any other fruit which will freeze well, cheap and work well? I love pineapple but its not that good in a smoothie, too many fibres. Adding some cooked oatmeal is also nice (not raw oatmeal) and would be a good alternative for having oats for breakfast.

The milk is expensive though, 90b for 2 litres I think it must be - I might try coconut water, but thats expensive as well, 10b for a small bag, but I guess more healthy than milk.

You don't blend any veggies?

Why not just buy blended fruit and vege drinks?

Why not just buy blended fruit and vege drinks?

Where do they sell them? Also like i said most shops won't blend the correct types. It's always too much of the sweet fruits and hardly any green leafy veggies for example.

It's like say a mango smoothie or a strawberry one with no veggies, carrots etc inside them.

Several posts removed sniping and flaming. Keep it civil and if you can't then don't post at all

I think your choices are buy or bring a blender, or try to make up for it by focusing on meals with a large percentage of vegetables. The latter is what I try to do as it is much easier to find. You might be able to get someone to blend a drink without sugar or with less fruits, but they really don't focus on non-sweet drinks at the places where I've found stands. They just are not likely to have the ingredients you're looking for. They'll have carrots, but not much leafy greens.
