Description
Berry bliss smoothie is a vibrant, antioxidant-packed beverage combining blueberries, raspberries, and a blackberry with creamy Greek yogurt and crushed ice. Perfect for breakfasts, post-workout recovery, or as a wholesome snack. Easily made vegan, dairy-free, or low-sugar.
Ingredients
For the Smoothie:
– ½ cup fresh or frozen blueberries
– ½ cup red raspberries
– 1 blackberry
– 1 cup crushed ice (omit if using frozen berries)
– 6 oz nonfat Greek yogurt (substitute plant-based yogurt or silken tofu for vegan option)
– A few drops liquid stevia (optional; substitute honey or maple syrup for vegan option)
Optional Add-ins:
– Chia seeds, flaxseeds, or spinach (for added nutrition)
– Cinnamon, ginger, or vanilla extract (for extra warmth)
– Toasted coconut flakes or almond butter drizzle (for garnish)
Instructions
- Measure out the blueberries, raspberries, blackberry, yogurt, and ice.
- Add blueberries, raspberries, the single blackberry, crushed ice, Greek yogurt, and liquid stevia to a blender.
- Blend until fully combined and smooth. If the mixture feels too thick, add a splash of almond milk, water, or fruit juice to achieve the desired consistency.
- Taste and adjust sweetness by adding more liquid stevia, honey, or a pitted date if needed.
- Pour into glasses and enjoy fresh for the best flavor and texture. Garnish with chia seeds, toasted coconut flakes, or extra fruit slices if desired.
Notes
– Use fresh or frozen berries: Fresh berries provide a lighter texture, while frozen berries make the smoothie thicker and colder without diluting the flavor.
– Storage: Store leftover smoothie in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. Freeze portions for longer storage; thaw overnight in the fridge and blend again before serving.
– Customizations: Swap blueberries with strawberries or cherries for variety. Stir in chia seeds, flaxseeds, or spinach for added nutrition.
