Bananoramaberry Smoothie


Greetings, friends! It definitely feels like summer here in Boston, and you know what summer makes me think of? Fun, cool drinks like smoothies! I made this delicious, healthy smoothie last week, and I'm not going to lie....I drank it so quickly you'd barely know I ever made it! Oops. It was just so good that I couldn't help it. :)

This made about 12 ounces or so for me, so it could easily be shared between two people too. I was selfish though and kept it for myself!

Ingredients:

-1/2 cup frozen banana (equals approx. one medium banana)
-1/2 cup frozen blueberries
-one 6 oz. container cherry flavored yogurt
-1 cup almond milk

Place all ingredients in your blender and blend away! You can certainly use any kind of yogurt you'd like. I happened to choose cherry, and it lent some great flavor to the smoothie. It also lent some of the pretty "purply" color, I think, although that's probably also due to the blueberries. You could also use regular or soy milk too, depending on your preference.


The smoothie coordinates well with my petunias!


Like my Dogfish Head beer glass? :)


Yum yum yum! Love it. I make different flavored smoothies all the time. Hopefully I will share more of them with you in the future! What are some of your favorite smoothie combinations or flavors? Do share!! :)

  1. Love the color. This could become my new favorite smoothie. My other favorite... the Green Smoothie with spinach, strawberries and banana. Both drinks would be perfect today, as it is hot and humid here in Pennsylvania.
