Instructions

  • Peel the banana and cut it into pieces.
  • Blend banana, blueberries, vanilla yoghurt, and juice until everything is mixed well.
  • Serve immediately in a large glass.
Enjoy!
Tip

The natural sweetness of banana contributes to a sweet flavour, so there is no need to add any sugar. So, pick one that is ripe, as it provides a more prominent sweet flavour. If you prefer a colder smoothie, just freeze the banana before blending.

Tip

Instead of store-bought orange juice, consider freshly squeezed orange juice, which provides a vibrant, tangy sweetness unmatched by its store-bought counterparts. The fresh juice brings out a brighter, more pronounced citrus note that perfectly complements the sweetness of the banana and the tartness of the blueberries.

Rich and smooth texture with frozen blueberries and vanilla yoghurt

The secret to the rich and smooth texture of our berry banana smoothie lies in two key ingredients: frozen blueberries and vanilla yoghurt. The frozen blueberries not only impart a vibrant colour and a burst of flavour but also thicken the smoothie to perfection, providing a wonderful coolness. The vanilla yoghurt elevates the smoothie with a rich, creamy texture and introduces a subtle vanilla flavour that complements both the banana and blueberries. This combination ensures that every sip is delicious. Give it a try – you will not be disappointed!

A touch of tangy sweetness from orange juice

Orange juice adds a layer of tangy sweetness that brightens up the flavours of the berry and banana smoothie. This citrusy addition not only boosts the taste but also aids in blending the ingredients more smoothly. The acidity of the orange juice perfectly balances the natural sweetness of the banana and the rich notes of the blueberries and vanilla yoghurt, resulting in a well-rounded flavour that is both invigorating and soothing.

Experiment with the recipe

While this smoothie is perfectly delicious as it is, feel free to tweak the recipe. For instance, consider adding a handful of spinach or some kale for a green boost. They blend seamlessly into the mix without overpowering the fruit and berry flavours.

You can also adjust the thickness of your smoothie. While the recipe suggests a perfect balance, you can experiment with the ratios. Less orange juice will yield a thicker smoothie, ideal for a smoothie bowl, whereas more can make it easier to sip.

Try other fruits and berries like strawberries, raspberries, or mango for a different taste. For those with a penchant for nutty flavours, a tablespoon of almond butter or peanut butter can transform your smoothie into a decadently creamy treat.
