A berry smoothie is a refreshing and nutritious drink made with blended berries, banana, and milk. It’s a quick, naturally sweet beverage perfect for breakfast, snacks, or post-workout fuel.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
  • 1 ripe banana
  • ¾ cup milk (dairy or non-dairy like almond, oat, or soy)
  • ¼ cup Greek yogurt (optional)
  • 1–2 tsp honey or maple syrup (optional, to taste)
  • 3–4 ice cubes (optional, for thicker texture)
  • 1 tsp chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional, for fiber)

Instructions

  1. Add berries, banana, milk, Greek yogurt, and any optional ingredients to a blender.
  2. Blend on high speed for 30–60 seconds or until smooth and creamy.
  3. Taste and adjust sweetness by adding honey or maple syrup, if desired.
  4. If the smoothie is too thick, add a bit more milk; if too thin, add ice cubes and blend again.
  5. Pour into a glass and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use frozen fruit for a colder, thicker smoothie.
  • To make dairy-free, use plant-based milk and yogurt.
  • Banana adds natural sweetness and creaminess; substitute with avocado or dates if needed.
  • Add protein powder or nut butter for a more filling option.
