Strawberry Raspberry Smoothie

This refreshing and sweet strawberry raspberry smoothie is a perfect combination of tart and sweet flavors, packed with vitamins and antioxidants. It’s a delicious way to boost your energy and enjoy a healthy treat.


Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 1 ripe banana (for natural sweetness and creaminess)
  • 1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)
  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt for a vegan option)
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
  • 1-2 ice cubes (optional, for a colder smoothie)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds or flaxseeds (optional, for extra fiber and nutrients)

Instructions

1. Combine Ingredients:

Add the strawberries, raspberries, banana, almond milk, Greek yogurt, honey (if using), and chia or flaxseeds (if using) to a blender.


2. Blend:

Blend on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Add more almond milk if you prefer a thinner consistency, or ice cubes for a thicker, colder smoothie.


3. Taste and Adjust:

Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness by adding more honey or maple syrup if needed.


4. Serve:

Pour the smoothie into glasses and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a few fresh raspberries or strawberries on top.


Tips and Variations

  • Add-ins: Add spinach, kale, or other greens to sneak in some extra nutrients without affecting the flavor too much.
  • Protein Boost: Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder for a more filling smoothie.
  • Vegan Option: Use dairy-free yogurt and plant-based milk for a completely vegan smoothie.
  • Frozen Fruit: Using frozen strawberries and raspberries will make the smoothie thicker and colder without needing ice.
  • Toppings: Top with granola, nuts, or coconut flakes for added texture.

Storage:

  • Refrigerate: Smoothies are best served fresh, but if you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours.
  • Freeze: You can freeze smoothie leftovers in ice cube trays for easy future use—just blend with some extra liquid when ready to enjoy.

This strawberry raspberry smoothie is a perfect balance of tangy and sweet, offering a burst of flavor and nutrients in every sip! 🍓🍇🥤
