Ingredients
Fruits
- 1 cup mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries)
- 1 ripe banana
Dairy
- ½ cup Greek yogurt
- 1 cup milk (or dairy-free alternative)
Sweetener
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Gather all ingredients on your countertop to streamline the blending process and ensure everything is ready to use.
- Blend Fruits: In a blender, combine the mixed berries and ripe banana. This forms the fruity base of your smoothie.
- Add Dairy: Add the Greek yogurt and milk (or dairy-free alternative) to the blender. Blend until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Sweeten Smoothie: Add honey or maple syrup to taste and blend again briefly to incorporate the sweetener evenly throughout the smoothie.
- Serve: Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with extra mixed berries for a visually appealing and flavorful touch.
Notes
- For a colder, thicker smoothie, use frozen berries or add ice cubes before blending.
- Substitute Greek yogurt with plant-based yogurt to make the smoothie vegan.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount of honey or maple syrup according to your taste and dietary needs.
- Use almond, oat, or soy milk as dairy-free alternatives without compromising flavor.
- Consume immediately after preparation for the best taste and consistency.
