I don't know if licuados (smoothies) are as popular in other parts of central America as they are in Honduras, but while I was there I had one almost every day. Just about every restaurant has a licuados on the menu. You can also get a fastfood licuado from 'Superjugo' which is just off the square in Copan. The most common licuado flavors are pineapple, mango, papaya and strawberry, but I've seen them in lots of other flavors as well such as peanut, melon, vanilla and banana.
I prefer licuados made with milk, although a watermelon made with water would be good too. You can also get them with yogurt or juice at some places. Nothing better than a fruity licuado on a hot day in copan.
My favorite places for smoothies are the following:
Cafe Welches (http://www.cafehonduras.com/ just north of the square, and also has good desserts and coffee). I think you can take a tour at their farms outside Copan.
Casa de Todo (http://www.casadetodo.com/ smoothie is pictured above) which is down the hill east of the square kind near the school Guacamaya. They are a little expensive but their smoothies are good! They also have a nice garden setting, internet and gift shop.
Superjugo (good for a takeaway licuado)
