Did you know? California is considered the birthplace of smoothies. It began to be sold there in the 30s of the 20th century, but the tradition of preparing soft drinks from grated fruits existed earlier, especially in tropical countries. The real peak of popularity came in the 60s during the heyday of the hippies who consumed these smoothies as healthy vegetarian and cheap food. The word "smoothie" comes from the English "smooth", which translates as "smooth, soft, homogeneous."
