Easy Mixed Berry Smoothie
I love whole fruit juices and smoothies. I also love that smoothies made with fruit don’t really need any additional / added sugar – because fruit is already so naturally sweet! Adding a touch of milk ups the creaminess factor.
Servings: 1 serving
Calories: 125kcal
Ingredients
- 1 cup Frozen Berry Medley I use the one from Trader Joe’s that has Blueberries, Blackberries, Strawberries, and Raspberries, but you can also just use frozen Strawberries, frozen Blueberries, etc. – pretty much any combination of berries that you like.
- 1/2 cup Unsweetened Vanilla SoyMilk: you can use any brand you like but just make sure it’s unsweetened – and has only 0-1g sugar and 100 calories for 1 cup. For a creamier smoothie with more protein, use 1 cup soy milk.
- Stevia or Agave sweetener to taste (optional)
Instructions
- Puree the berries and soy milk in a blender. You can also use a hand blender if you have one at home. Add Agave or Stevia to taste (once the smoothie has been prepared)
Notes
Note: If you don’t like Soy Milk, you can use 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (40 calories for 1 cup), or even regular 1% organic milk (100 calories for 1 cup). Using regular organic 1% milk makes this drink even sweeter and tastes just like a milkshake!
