Wash the strawberries thoroughly under cool running water, then hull them by removing the green tops.
Peel the ripe banana and break it into chunks for easier blending.
In a blender, combine the fresh strawberries, banana, vanilla Greek yogurt, orange juice, and honey.
Add the ice cubes to the blender for a chilled and thick smoothie texture.
Blend on high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more honey.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. You can garnish with a fresh strawberry on the rim of each glass for an extra touch.
