I used to drive to Smoothie King to get their angel food smoothie. It sounded fancy. Something had to be in their smoothie to make it taste like angel food cake, right? Turns out wrong. It’s a standard strawberry and banana smoothie. I am impressed with their clever naming!
It’s not just Smoothie King I regularly drove to. I had terrible habits and went to Starbucks almost every day. Since then, I have also made my favorite Starbucks copycats, like Starbucks Blueberry Scones (my most popular recipe!), Strawberry Acai Refresher, and the Apple Crisp Macchiato Oatmilk recipe.
Angel Food Smoothie Copycat Recipe
At A Glance
EASE: Super easy
COURSE: All day
TIME: 5 – 10 minutes depending on the fruit
DIET: Custimizable to many different diet needs: vegan, dairy free, plant based and gluten free.
Ingredients
Bananas
Use standard ripe bananas. Ripe is the keyword. If the banana needs to ripen or past its prime, it will impact the flavor of your smoothie. great if they are not ripe or past their prime. I like to use frozen bananas. They give this smoothie a creamier texture.
Strawberries
I recommend using frozen berries; they are blender-ready and super easy. You can use fresh strawberries if you prefer. Remember to remove the stems. If the berry is large, cut it in half or quarters to make the blending easier.
Sugar
Smoothie King uses turbinado sugar (sugar in the raw), which is an interesting choice from my point of view. What is important here is that you do not need to use turbinado sugar. You can make this smoothie with your favorite sugar or omit it. I do that when I make this recipe at home.
Milk
Smoothie King uses non-fat dry milk. It makes sense; it’s easier to store and has a long shelf life. What you need to know is that it is still milk. So if you have dry milk, you can use it, but I would not buy it for this recipe. If you do not have it, use regular or plant-based milk. You can use evaporated milk to make this smoothie ultra-sinful!

Angel Food Smoothie Slim
You can also make a version of Angel Food Smoothie Slim at home. The recipe uses strawberries and bananas. Then, replace milk with pear juice and sugar with stevia. Smoothie King also adds protein powder to their Angel Food Slim recipe.
Peanut Butter and Jelly-ish
I like to add a heaping spoonful of peanut butter. It makes this smoothie taste like a PBJ! If you like a super creamy PBJ smoothie, add a quarter cup of old-fashioned oats!
Blenders
I recommend using a high-performance blender. They have a high wattage and are designed to crush the ice into a smooth consistency. You can use a standard household blender if you do not have one. Note that the texture might not be as smooth as the smoothies at Smoothie King.

- Heat over low to medium heat until the sugar dissolves completely.
- Allow it to cool before adding it to the smoothie.

I rate it a 5 out of 5. It tastes exactly like the Smoothie King Angel Food drink. It has the perfect amount of sweetness, strawberries, and bananas. The texture is also not too thick or thin. I add vanilla almond milk because I don’t like regular milk and it still tastes fine.
