Ingredient Notes
Frozen Berries: Both fresh and frozen berries work well in this recipe. Frozen berries, especially the tangy raspberries and fresh strawberries, are great for a colder, thicker texture and are often more affordable than fresh.
Greek Yogurt: This adds protein and healthy fats to your smoothie. You can swap it out for almond butter or peanut butter for a different texture and flavor.
Sweeteners: Honey is used in the recipe but feel free to switch it out for maple syrup, agave nectar, or any sweetener of your choice. Remember, the goal is to satisfy your taste buds!
Cinnamon: This spice is a great way to control blood sugar levels and add a dash of warmth to your smoothie. Feel free to adjust the quantity as per your preference.
Liquid Choices: Oat milk is used in this recipe, but you could use regular milk, a cup of almond milk, coconut water, apple juice, or any non-dairy milk. Each choice will slightly alter the taste and texture of your smoothie.

Recipe Tips
- For best results, use a high-speed blender or food processor to ensure all ingredients are smoothly blended.
- For a thicker smoothie, use frozen banana or additional ice cubes. You can also chill your serving glass before pouring the smoothie in for extra coldness.
- For added nutrition, consider incorporating flax seeds, chia seeds, or cacao nibs. These are a good source of fiber and add little to no extra flavor.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover smoothie in the fridge for up to 24 hours. If you find your smoothie has separated, give it a good stir or a quick blend before drinking. Avoid reheating your smoothie, as this can lead to loss of nutrients and alter the fresh taste.
Additions & Substitutions
You can replace the Greek yogurt with a vegan alternative or add a scoop of protein powder for an extra protein boost. Consider swapping out the strawberries and raspberries with your other favorite fruits for a different flavor profile. If you want to add a creamy touch, you can use a scoop of ice cream instead of yogurt.
