A smoothie is blended whole ingredients, usually thicker and more substantial than juice. The overlap is real, but they are not the same thing.

Smoothies incorporate whole fruits, vegetables, and often dairy or other ingredients, blending them to retain fiber and pulp. Juice is primarily extracted liquid, lacking the textural and nutritional complexity of a smoothie.

Smoothies contain whole blended fruit and often thickeners, while juice is strained liquid. Different texture and nutritional profile.
