smoothie1977

1977 Washington Post 2 June f12/3 There are some definite winners among the selections: Freshly made onion rings, a yogurt and fruit drink called a ‘smoothie’, [etc.].

1986 Auckland Metro Feb. 29/3 Buttermilk is an ideal replacement for yoghurt in the breakfast smoothie or for milk in a standard milkshake.

1987 Sunday Tel. 7 June (Colour Suppl.) 30/2 In New York now, there are entire bars which cater for trendy non-drinkers. They serve nothing but a selection of mineral waters, soft drinks and non-alcoholic cocktails (called ‘smoothies’).

1989 Sunday Mail (Brisbane) 1 Jan. 34/1 It's worth noting that the shop underneath makes ripper soymilk smoothies. Buy yourself a strawberry job with frozen yoghurt.
