We have this electric mixer cutter thing, a wand, works fine we dont mind the pulp. we have old metal milkshake cups we use to mix Or if we goig out for the day I sometimes put lactose free skinny milk into a jar a banana and whatever frozen or raw berries I want and just go for it on with the lid and off. Other times chopped fruit and veg in an organic fruit juice base. They are as cheap as about 25 bucks,they do the trick,pulp and fiber wont hurt you.
