This Mixed Berry Smoothie is cooling and refreshing. Creamy, thick, and absolutely delicious. Packed with fruity freshness and wonderful flavors. It's also very nutritious and has no added sugars. Great breakfast option or afternoon energizing drink.
Add all ingredients in the blender. Note: add wet ingredients first for easier blending. Also, add in ice cubes, if using.
Mix everything at high speed until you get a smooth silky texture.
If the smoothie is too thick, add a little more liquid – milk or water. Blend again until everything is well combined.
Taste the smoothie and add additional sweetener if the smoothie is not sweet enough to your taste. (See "Recipe tips" section for sweetener recommendation)
Transfer the smoothie into a smoothie glass.
ADD TOPPINGS: I used whipped coconut cream and cacao nibs. Be creative here and add toppings you like.
Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Makes 1 serving that serves 1 person as a full meal, or 2 servings as a snack.As a measure, I used US cup (240ml).Nutrition values are calculated without added toppings.Substitutions
Substitute the almond milk with any plant-based milk except coconut milk. Coconut milk won't work well here. Cow's milk is fine.
Substitute ground flax seeds with hemp seeds or chia seeds.
Substitute almond butter with any nut butter, or seed butter. Tahini is very delicious here, same as cashew butter. Peanut butter won't work here.
Store in a glass jar with a lid or shaker and keep refrigerated for up to one day.
