Smoothies on this page include ready to drink bottled smoothies, fruit and vegetable pouches, and smoothie mixes and bases for blending at home. Bottled smoothies are convenient for breakfast on the go, pouches suit children and lunch boxes, and mixes give more control over thickness and ingredients. The first decision is whether you want a ready drink or something to blend, because the cost, shelf life and nutrition differ.
Ingredients and sugar are the next questions. Fruit based smoothies contain natural sugars from the fruit, and some add juice concentrates or sweeteners. Check the sugar, fibre and protein per serving, and the serving size, since bottles may contain more than one serving.
Storage and shelf life matter a lot here. Among the 9 products that list product shelf life, most fall between 49 and 506 days, and 180 days is typical. Chilled smoothies need refrigeration and a quick finish after opening, while shelf stable pouches and bottles keep in the cupboard until opened. Frozen smoothie packs are another option.
Size and container come next. Pouches and small bottles suit single servings, while larger bottles and multipacks suit families. Sweetness labels describe the maker's view of the taste.
Before buying, check the ingredients, sugar, protein, serving size, the container size and count, whether it needs refrigeration, and the allergen information. Shake bottled smoothies well, since fruit pulp settles, and refrigerate pouches after opening. Protein smoothies add milk, yogurt or plant protein and suit breakfast or after exercise, while fruit only smoothies are lighter and sweeter. Green smoothies with vegetables taste less sweet and appeal to people trying to eat more greens. Pouches for babies and toddlers are a separate group with age guidance on the pack, and they should be squeezed onto a spoon rather than sucked from the pouch for very young children.
