Smoothie vs Shake

shake

Both words refer to a cold, thick drink. A „Smoothie“ mainly consists of puréed raw fruit or vegetables, while a „Shake“ typically has milk, ice cream, or powder as its base. The key question is therefore whether the drink is made from puréed fruit or from a mixture of milk, ice cream, or powder.

Visual example for Shake
Smoothie

Nach dem Training bestellte ich einen Smoothie aus pürierter Banane und frischen Beeren.

After my workout, I ordered a smoothie made from puréed banana and fresh berries.

Shake
