Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup blackberries
- 1 medium banana
- 0.5 cup Greek yogurt
- 0.75 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon chia seeds
- 5 pieces ice cubes
Instructions
Wash the blackberries thoroughly under cold water and drain them using a strainer.
Peel and slice the banana into smaller chunks for easier blending.
In a blender, add the blackberries, sliced banana, Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey, and chia seeds.
Add the ice cubes to the blender to make the smoothie cold and refreshing.
Blend the ingredients on high speed for about 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
Check the consistency of the smoothie. If it’s too thick, add a little more almond milk and blend for a few seconds.
Taste the smoothie and add extra honey if needed for additional sweetness, blending again briefly.
Pour the smoothie into two glasses and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with a few fresh blackberries or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top.
