Mixed Berry Smoothie Recipe

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This recipe for a mixed berry smoothie is a refreshing and healthy combination of fruit and yogurt that’s kid-approved and super easy to make! Smoothies are a great choice for breakfast or as a  mid-day snack.

We are smoothie crazy in my house, we make smoothies almost daily including pineapple smoothies, blueberry smoothies and this simple mixed berry smoothie.

Can you ever have too many smoothie recipes? I don’t think so! This mixed berry smoothie is my girls’ current favorite, so I figured it was time I shared it all with you too. It takes about 5 minutes to make, and it’s packed with protein thanks to Greek yogurt so it’s both filling and refreshing.

How do you make a mixed berry smoothie?

This mixed berry smoothie is simply frozen berries, banana, vanilla Greek yogurt, liquid of your choice, and sweetener if you desire. I buy bags of mixed frozen berries and always have a few in the freezer for when a smoothie craving strikes. I typically make these smoothies with apple juice as it eliminates the need to add any sweetener later on. Other liquid choices are skim milk, almond milk, coconut milk or even a cranberry juice would be nice. When I do sweeten smoothies, I typically reach for a little honey. Like I said, it’s really not needed here if you’re using juice, but you may want to add some if you go with a less sweet liquid like skim milk.

I have an insanely picky 3 year old, and on days when I can’t get her to eat more than 2 bites of anything, these mixed berry smoothies are a lifesaver. Nutrients, protein, fiber – and they happen to be her favorite color, bright pink! So while this may be a simple recipe, it’s definitely worthy of sharing for all of you out there who are trying to get your families to eat (and drink!) healthier. Hope you enjoy!

    Very good! I used apple white grape juice so no sweetener was needed. I also like to throw in some chunks of frozen pineapple so avoid sweeteners. Next time I will start with a little less juice and go from there. Thanks for an excellent recipe!

      I was surprised how good this smoothie was! I would prefer to add orange juice for the “liquid”. Thank you for sharing this amazing recipe!
