Frullato di frutta (Italian Fruit Smoothie)

Total Time5 minutes

Ingredients

For each serving:

  • A medium-sized piece of fruit peeled and cut into large chunks
  • A few ice cubes
  • Cold milk to cover

Optional:

  • Superfine sugar or simple syrup to taste

Instructions

  • Put the cut up fruit and ice cubes in a blender or, if using a hand immersion blender, into its beaker or a tall glass. Add enough milk just to cover the ingredients and, if you like, a spoonful of two or sugar or syrup, just enough to enhance the fruit flavor. A proper frullato should not be cloyingly sweet.
  • Blend until perfectly smooth and serve immediately.
