  • 1 cup Almond Breeze Unsweetened Original Almondmilk
  • ¼ cup frozen blueberries

  • ¼ cup frozen blackberries

Method
 

Gather Your Ingredients
  1. Before you begin, arrange all your fresh and frozen ingredients within easy reach on your counter. Ensure your blender is clean and ready for action. This helps streamline the process and makes for a more enjoyable cooking experience.
Add to Blender
  1. Start by adding the liquid component first; pour the Almond Breeze Unsweetened Original Almondmilk into your blender. Next, add the creamy plain Greek yogurt, followed by the vibrant frozen blueberries, frozen raspberries, and frozen blackberries. Toss in the ½ banana, and if you’re using it, the ½ teaspoon honey or maple syrup. Finally, don't forget that special touch: add a pinch (about 1/8 teaspoon) of ground ginger for enhanced flavor and benefits!
Blend Until Smooth
  1. Secure the lid firmly on your blender. Start blending on a low speed, gradually increasing to high. Watch as the ingredients whirl and transform into a beautiful, vibrant, creamy mixture. Continue to blend until it's absolutely smooth and creamy, making sure no fruit chunks remain. If the mixture seems too thick or gets stuck, pause your blender, and use a spatula to scrape down the sides, pushing the ingredients towards the blades, then resume blending.
Serve and Garnish
  1. Once perfectly smooth, immediately pour your delicious probiotic smoothie into a tall glass. For an appealing touch and a burst of freshness, garnish with a few fresh blueberries or a thin slice of banana. Enjoy this invigorating and gut-friendly treat right away!

Notes

This vibrant probiotic smoothie is best enjoyed immediately after blending to capture its freshest flavor, optimal coldness, and peak nutrient retention. For a more complete breakfast, pair it with whole-grain toast or nuts. If storing, pour into an airtight container and refrigerate for 1-2 days, stirring or re-blending before serving.
