If you give LO smoothies

What do you serve them in?

I was inspired to make a smoothie for Anna after a bunch of you said you used frozen fruit for them, but the only straw cup we have is too narrow and she was struggling to get anything through the straw. I ended up pouring it in a regular cup and holding it for her while she drank through a regular straw - not ideal. Anyone have a great smoothie cup?

Um, we use one of the plastic cups the kids get from Moe's.  We had the same issue with her straw cups so we just brought one of those home from when we went there.  It uses a regular straw but has the plastic top on it.

We do the same thing expect I have a cup from Jason's Deli. It is easier for her to drink from and contians most of the mess.

We also use the take n toss cups. Target has a good selection of cups too, I saw some cute plastic mason jars with a straw there recently.

We do spinach, orange, banana, frozen strawberries, greek yogurt and ice. I service it in a straw sippy and never have a issue. If it seems too thick i just add a bit of water to it. You have to make sure you rinse it out right away though or you never get the straw clean!

Thanks guys! I'm going to try the take n toss ones and I'll try to remember to steal a kiddie cup the next time we go out to eat
