2 cups frozen mixed berries
1 banana, sliced
½ cup yogurt (plain or vanilla Greek yogurt recommended)
2 tablespoons honey, agave, or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)
Instructions
Blend:
Add all ingredients to a high-speed blender (start with liquid, then berries, banana, and yogurt). Blend on high for 1–2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
Adjust Consistency:
If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more liquid. If too thin, add ice or more frozen fruit. Adjust sweetness with honey or agave if needed.
Serve:

Notes
Tools Needed:
Use a quality high-speed blender like Vitamix or Ninja for best texture.
Smoothie Bowl Option:
Use only ½ cup of liquid for a thicker smoothie. Blend as directed, pour into a bowl, and top with fresh fruit, shredded coconut, chia seeds, or granola.
Protein Boost:
Add a scoop of your favorite protein powder to turn this smoothie into a post-workout meal.
Sweetener Tip:
Depending on your berries and banana ripeness, you may not need any extra sweetener.
