This recipe combines the sweetness of strawberries and raspberries with the creamy texture of Greek yogurt and milk, making it a perfect snack or breakfast option. Packed with vitamins and protein, this smoothie is not only tasty but also nutritious.
Ingredients:
Instructions:
- If using fresh strawberries, rinse them under cold water, hull (remove the green tops), and slice them into halves or quarters.
- If the raspberries are fresh, rinse them gently under cold water and dry with a paper towel.
- Make sure your blender is clean and properly assembled.
- Begin by adding the strawberries to the blender.
- Next, add the raspberries.
- Spoon in the Greek yogurt.
- Pour the milk over the other ingredients.
- Place the lid on the blender securely.
- Blend on medium to high speed until all ingredients are smooth and well combined. This should take about 30-60 seconds depending on your blender's power.
- You may need to pause and scrape down the sides with a spatula to ensure everything is well mixed.
- If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more milk, a tablespoon at a time, blending after each addition until you reach your desired consistency.
- If it's too thin, you can add a bit more yogurt or a few more berries and blend again.
- Pour the smoothie into glasses.
- Optionally, garnish with a fresh strawberry or a few raspberries on top.
- Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor.
Tips:
- For a thicker smoothie, you can add a few ice cubes or use frozen berries instead of fresh ones.
- To make the smoothie vegan, replace the Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt and the milk with almond milk, soy milk, or any other dairy-free alternative.
- If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, consider adding a tablespoon of honey or maple syrup.
- For an extra nutritional boost, add a handful of spinach or a scoop of protein powder to the blender.
- Blend the ingredients gradually starting at a low speed and then increasing to high for a smoother texture.
There you have it! A perfect Red Berry Smoothie that’s both healthy and delicious. Whether you're starting your day or looking for a midday snack, this smoothie will keep you refreshed and energized. Enjoy every sip!
