well, this is a great idea to make a smoothie but, are there anyother ways to make one without a blender?

As an alternative to a fork, you can use a potato masher or a meat tenderizer to mash up fruit.

One step further in the technology department takes you to food mills and grinders, which don’t use electricity but do take up space in the kitchen.

And then there’s the food processor. You can use it to make a smoothie, but I find that they leak when there’s too much liquid involved.
