Mixed Berry Greek Yogurt Smoothie
Three ingredients from the freezer and fridge: frozen mixed berries, Greek yogurt and milk. Thick, tangy and ready in about three minutes.
- 3 min prep
- 1 smoothie (about 14 oz)
- 4 ingredients
A bag of frozen mixed berries is the easiest smoothie ingredient there is: no washing, no chopping, and it makes the smoothie cold and thick at the same time.
Berries are tart, so taste before you add honey. Bags with strawberries in them make a sweeter smoothie than raspberries or blackberries alone.
Ingredients
- 1 cup (about 140 g) frozen mixed berries
- ½ cup (about 115 g) plain Greek yogurt
- ¾ cup (180 ml) milk
- 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
Method
- Pour the milk into the blender, then add the Greek yogurt.
- Add the frozen berries. Blend for 45–60 seconds, until smooth.
- Taste it. If it's too tart, add the honey and blend for 5 more seconds. Pour and drink right away.
Tips for the best texture
- If the berries stall the blender, stop, stir with a spoon and blend again. Add more milk only if you have to.
- Raspberry and blackberry seeds stay in the smoothie. If they bother you, use strawberries and blueberries instead.
- Half a ripe banana sweetens it without honey and makes it creamier.
