Help!?
What can we use if we don't have a blender?
If you don't have a blender, ask an adult to use a food processor or immersion blender, or mash the yogurt, lime juice, honey, and softened ice in a sturdy jar and shake until smooth to achieve the same blended outcome.
Why is my smoothie grainy or still has chunks after blending?
Make sure the 4 graham crackers are crushed into fine crumbs in the resealable bag, break the ice into smaller pieces or blend longer (about 30–60 seconds) with the blender lid closed securely, pausing to scrape the sides if needed.
How can I adapt the steps for younger children or older kids?
For preschoolers, let them crush graham crackers in the resealable bag and spoon 1 cup of yogurt into the blender with adult help for cutting the lime and operating the blender, while older kids can measure all ingredients (1 cup yogurt, 2 tbsp lime juice, 1 tbsp honey, 1 cup ice) and blend independently for 30–60 seconds.
How can we personalize or improve the Key Lime Pie Smoothie?
Add a frozen banana or 1/2 cup vanilla ice cream for extra creaminess, stir in lime zest, top with a dollop of whipped cream and leftover crushed graham cracker crumbs, then share a photo and short description on DIY.org.
