Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup blueberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup water
Instructions
In a blender, combine the blueberries, raspberries, Greek yogurt, honey, lemon juice, vanilla extract, and water.
Blend the mixture on high speed until smooth and creamy. If using frozen berries, pause and scrape down the sides of the blender as necessary.
Taste the mixture and adjust sweetness by adding more honey, if desired.
Pour the blended mixture into a freezer-safe container. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover the container tightly and place it in the freezer for at least 2-3 hours or until semi-firm. For a softer consistency, stir every 30 minutes during the freezing process to prevent ice crystals from forming.
When ready to serve, let the container sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Scoop into bowls or glasses and garnish with fresh berries or mint leaves, if desired.
