    • Creamy Berry Smoothie

    The milk and yogurt add a creaminess to the blended berries, making every sip perfectly smooth. I use nonfat yogurt and milk as a preference, but you can definitely switch it up to make this very berry smoothie recipe your own.

    Why You’ll Love This Recipe

    • It’s healthy: Between the fruit, nonfat milk, yogurt, and natural sweetener, there’s so much to love about this mixed berry smoothie recipe. It’s so good for you without sacrificing taste.
    • It’s quick to make: You only need a few minutes to make this smoothie. Just measure and add the ingredients to the blender, blend them, and it’s ready to enjoy immediately.
    • It’s customizable: I love smoothies because you’re free to swap, omit, or add ingredients as you see fit. Use this recipe as a guide to creating your own flavor combinations.

    Ingredients

    All the components needed for this smoothie with frozen berries are common ingredients you can get at any grocery store at any time. You don’t have to worry about whether the fruit is in season because it’s frozen!

    Ingredients for berry smoothie on a table.
    • Frozen berries: I use frozen blueberries and strawberries for this because they’re my favorite berries, and I love how they pair so well with the banana and yogurt. You can add these straight from the freezer! Feel free to use your faves instead!
    • Banana: This adds a creaminess to the smoothie as well as natural sweetness. It enhances the berry flavor amazingly.
    • Milk: I use skim milk for this to keep it healthy. Feel free to use 2% or whole milk if it’s what you prefer.
    • Yogurt: I chose non-fat vanilla yogurt because the vanilla flavor just fits so well here. You can go with plain or Greek yogurt, too.
    • Honey: A little sweetness brings everything together, and I love honey because it’s so much better for you than sugar!

    See the recipe card below for exact ingredient amounts, nutritional information, and detailed instructions.

    Variations

    • Cherry berry: Add some frozen cherries for some tart flavor to your smoothie.
    • Maple: Sweeten the smoothie a bit more with a drizzle of maple syrup.
    • Add veggies: Blend some spinach or kale in your smoothie for even more nutrients.
    • Vegan: Use plant-based milk like almond or oat and a dairy-free yogurt to make this recipe vegan-friendly. (Leave out the honey, too!)

    How to Make Berry Smoothies

    Here are the directions you’ll need to make this mixed berry smoothie with milk. Just add the ingredients, blend, and serve!

    Step 3: Serve. Pour the smoothie into glasses and enjoy!

    Recipe Tips

    • Storage directions: You may store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 24 hours in the fridge. Blend your leftovers with some ice cubes or a bit more frozen fruit to restore the consistency.
    • Adjust the milk if needed: If you want a thinner smoothie, add more milk, and if you want a thicker one (or use it in a smoothie bowl), use a little less.
    • Use any combination of berries: I love blueberries and strawberries, but you may use any kind you want. I even recommend picking up a bag of frozen berries and creating your own berry medley smoothie.

    Serving Suggestions

    • Enjoy your smoothie with a savory breakfast. Sausage egg bites and Mexican breakfast casserole are great options.
    • Learn how to make yogurt bark and enjoy a healthy snack on the side.
    • Keep it crunchy and enjoy ranch snack mix or churro pretzels with a refreshing smoothie.

    Recipe FAQs

    Can I use fresh berries?

    Yes, but I recommend that you add some ice cubes as well, so you get the right consistency. Fresh fruit will make the smoothie much thinner than frozen fruit.

    Can I make berry smoothies in advance?

    You can make it a few hours ahead, but fresh is best, so if you can make it right away, that would be a better choice!

    Can I freeze the leftovers?

    I don’t recommend it because it separates as it thaws and becomes a bit watery. Smoothies are best enjoyed immediately.
