The more ice cubes you add the more watered down it gets. Having the fruit frozen helps acheive what the ice does with out losing the flavor.Why do blender/smoothie recipes always have the fruit be frozen?
Frozen fruit is used because it's less perishable, and then your smoothie is really cold! You can use fresh fruit... I do it all the time. Just make sure your juice base is cold and throw in some ice.
