A quick and easy smoothie blending strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries with creamy Greek yogurt, almond milk, and a touch of honey for a healthy antioxidant boost.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup strawberries, fresh or frozen, hulled
  • 1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup raspberries, fresh or frozen
  • ยฝ cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 cup almond milk or milk of choice
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds
  • ยฝ cup ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. If using fresh berries, rinse thoroughly under cold water and hull strawberries (about 5 minutes). Frozen berries can be added directlyโ€”no need to thaw.
  2. Into your blender, add 1 cup each of strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries (about 5 oz per berry type). Next, pour in ยฝ cup (120 ml) of plain Greek yogurt and 1 cup (240 ml) of almond milk or preferred milk.
  3. Drizzle 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of honey or maple syrup for natural sweetness, then squeeze in 1 tablespoon (15 ml) fresh lemon juice to brighten the flavor.
  4. Toss in 1 teaspoon (5 g) of chia seeds for fiber and omega-3 benefits.
  5. If you like your smoothie chilled and thick, add ยฝ cup (120 ml) of ice cubes, especially if using fresh berries.
  6. Blend on high speed for 1 to 2 minutes until the mixture is creamy and smooth. Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides if needed.
  7. Taste and adjust sweetness or thickness by adding more honey or milk if desired. Blend again for 15 seconds if adjustments are made.
  8. Pour into glasses and serve immediately for the freshest flavor and best texture.

Notes

Use frozen berries for best texture and thickness without diluting flavor. Adjust honey to taste. Let smoothie sit 5 minutes if chia seeds cause gritty texture. For vegan version, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut or almond yogurt and honey with maple syrup. Add protein powder, banana, or oats for extra filling smoothie.
