My Kids and I are really into smoothies lately, especially this Mixed Berry Smoothie that we have been enjoying as a healthy afternoon snack after our mid-day bike rides. A perk of being in quarantine with your kiddos. Sometimes we mix things up with this cherry banana smoothie that they also LOVE!

I love that you can make it in less than 5 minutes and my kids devour it, which makes me happy since it is packed with protein, healthy fat and lot’s of Vitamin C from the mixed berries. Plus, there is no added sugar in it since it is naturally sweetened with the fruit and a little no calorie sweetener, like Stevia.

What kind of fruit can you use in a mixed berry smoothie?

I used a blend of frozen strawberries, blueberries and raspberries but any blend will work. You can even use all blueberries or strawberries if that is all you have on hand.

I do recommend using frozen berries rather then fresh berries in order to get that nice cold blended result you want in a smoothie recipe like this one.

Recipe tips for making great smoothies

• Use frozen fruits so it blends nicely and makes the smoothie nice and bright and cold.
• You can use fat free or full fat plain greek yogurt in this recipe. I prefer the nonfat since adding the almond butter gives you a healthier fat.
• You can use any kind of nut butter but I prefer the almond butter since I think the flavor really goes well with the almond milk and mixed berries.
• After blending this smoothie I suggest drinking it right away for the best experience. You can pour it into mason jars with lids and store it for a few hours in the fridge but it will get slightly watered down as it sits. Even better yet, take it on the go!
• Any kind of milk will also work in this recipe. I used almond milk and almond butter because that is what I typically have but any kind of milk will work.
