A quick, easy, and refreshing smoothie packed with antioxidants and vitamins from mixed berries, perfect for a healthy boost any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (150g) mixed berries (fresh or frozen strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, or blackberries)
  • 1 medium banana, ripe and sliced
  • 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened almond milk (or oat, soy, or preferred milk)
  • ½ cup (120g) plain Greek yogurt (full-fat or low-fat; dairy-free coconut yogurt for vegan option)
  • 1–2 teaspoons honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed (optional)
  • A handful of spinach or kale (optional)

Instructions

  1. Slice the banana and measure out 1 cup (150g) of mixed berries. Wash and dry fresh berries if using; no thawing needed for frozen berries.
  2. Pour 1 cup (240ml) of unsweetened almond milk into the blender.
  3. Add ½ cup (120g) of plain Greek yogurt and 1–2 teaspoons of honey or maple syrup if extra sweetness is desired.
  4. Add the sliced banana and mixed berries to the blender.
  5. Pour in 1 tablespoon (15ml) of fresh lemon juice. Add 1 tablespoon ground flaxseed and a handful of spinach or kale if using.
  6. Blend on high for 45–60 seconds until smooth and creamy. Add more almond milk if too thick and blend again.
  7. Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity by adding more honey or lemon juice if needed, then pulse briefly to mix.
  8. Serve immediately in a tall glass and enjoy.

Notes

Start blending with liquids first to help blades move freely. Pulse frozen berries before full speed to protect blender motor. Add almond milk gradually if smoothie is too thick. Use banana for natural sweetness and creaminess. Serve immediately for best flavor and texture. Store in airtight container in fridge up to 24 hours; stir before drinking. Avoid reheating or freezing after blending.
