1 banana (for creaminess and natural sweetness)


1 cup milk (dairy or plant-based, such as almond, oat or soy)


½ cup yogurt (Greek yogurt or plant-based for added creaminess)


1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for addition sweetness)


½ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional for flavor)


1 cup ice cubes (if you want an ice-cold, refreshing smoothie)


Optional Add-ins for Extra Nutrition:


1 tbsp chia seeds or flaxseeds (for fiber + omega 3s)


1 tablespoon peanut butter or almond butter (adds protein and a nutty flavor)


½ teaspoon cinnamon (for warmth and coziness)


1 scoop protein powder (perfect for post workout recovery)


1/2 cup spinach or kale (adds vitamins without altering flavor)





Step-by-Step Instructions


How to Make a Mixed Berry Smoothie — simply follow these steps:


Step 1: Get Your Ingredients Ready


Wash the berries thoroughly. Do not thaw if using frozen berries.


Remove the skin from the banana and chop it into pieces.


For an extra thick smoothie, freeze the banana for 30+ minutes before blending!


Step 2: Toss Everything in Together


Add the berries, banana, milk, yogurt, and vanilla extract to a blender.


If you’re adding extras, like honey, chia seeds or peanut butter, add it now.


In a high speed blender, blend for about 30-60 seconds, or until smooth and creamy.


Step 3: Adjust & Serve


Taste your smoothie — if you’d like it sweeter, add more honey or maple syrup.


If it’s too thick, add a touch more milk. If it’s too thin, add more berries or a handful of ice cubes.


Pour into glass, top with fresh berries or granola, and enjoy!




Best Tips for this Mixed Berry Smoothie


Do you want to level up your smoothie? Here are some pro tips:


✔ Make a Thicker Smoothie with Frozen Berries — Frozen berries make the smoothie FRIGID and creamy without extra ice.


✔ Balance the Liquid — If you prefer a thicker smoothie, decrease the milk a little. Add a bit more for a thinner consistency.


✔ Sprinkle Nutritional Boosters – Nutritional superfoods like chia seeds, flaxseeds or protein powder for extra nutrition with no added flavor.


✔ Try Out More Flavors — A scoop of cocoa powder gets you a chocolate-berry smoothie, while a handful of coconut flakes will transport you to somewhere tropical.


✔ Blend in Stages – If you’ve adding tougher substances like nuts or seeds, start with those and blend with the milk first, then add the fruit equally for a smoother end product.
