Description
I love the bright color of this smoothie and the fact that it’s packed with protein from the Greek yogurt.
Ingredients
- 1 cup of fresh blackberries
- 1/2 of a frozen banana
- 1 – (6 oz) container of plain non-fat/low-fat Greek yogurt (I used Chobani)
- 4 cubes of ice
- 1/2–3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk or other type of milk, if needed
- a few drops of liquid stevia or other natural sweetener, to taste
Instructions
- Place blackberries, banana, yogurt, ice cubes and 1/4 cup milk in blender and blend until fruit is pureed and ingredients are well combined.
- Add stevia to sweeten and more milk to get the desired thickness (if necessary).

This is really good. Thanks!
Oh my goodness that color is amazing! I will be including this in a smoothie round-up!
Yummy! Great recipe.
I will give you a site in USA where I got real fruit on powder form, I mix it with milk and ice cream to go healthy. they have berries, mango, soursop, apple, pineapple, etc. A lot of fruits & veggies. Enjoy guys! http://www.freshlydried.com
Yummy! Got one on my fridge now.
Do you think this could be frozen and still taste good when thawed? I have never tried freezing smoothies. What do you think?
hmm… I’m not 100% how it would be. I would just make it and put it in the fridge until you want to drink it — as long as you plan to drink it within 24 hours or so.
This smoothie sounds good for being healthy ha ha. I might have to try it 🙂
This recipe is so good! I’ve fallen in love with almond milk lately, it’s proven a great replacement for soy. My girlfriend just bought me a juicer and I’ve been making my own almond milk, so much fun! Do you juice your own almonds, or which brand would you recommend?
Hi Travis. I’m glad you like the recipe! I’ve made my own almond milk in the Vitamix but most of the time I buy Almond Breeze unsweetened vanilla almond milk.
I just finished pinning your Black Berry Smoothie! and I noticed the color of the straw, do you mind me asking where you found these straws? My daughter is having a rustic wedding and we are using mason jars to drink out of, and these straws would be cool to use!
Hi Annette,
I bought a four pack of the stainless steel straws on Amazon http://astore.amazon.com/eatbirfoo-20/detail/B000AUIN18
Best of luck wedding planning. I’m in the midst of planning a wedding as well! 🙂
It’s been a few days since you originally posted this and I am still obsessing over how vibrant that smoothie looks. Just purchased my own set of metal straws through your link so my smoothies can look just as awesome!
Awesome! I hope you like them!
Love that color!
Oh my goodness! This smoothie looks so pretty, and I bet it tastes super delicious! I have never used yogurt in a smoothie…does it make it creamy??
Awesome blog post and nice photo keep it up. great job..!!
So pretty, Britt. I wanna slurp it up! So great chatting with you yesterday. Miss you and love you. So happy for you and all you’re doing. xoox Keep up the great work and have a fabulous time wedding planning!
The picture is AWESOME!! And the smoothie sounds wonderful!!
That is the brightest smoothie I’ve ever seen! I like it 😀 I also like that straw! Nifty.
XO!
p.s. just had a flashback to when we made dinner at your place + grill mwahaha. Thinking of you <3
That was soo fun and the veggies were amazing!!! I hope you are doing well my dear!
That is the prettiest smoothie I have ever seen!!! 🙂
I’ve been crazy for blackberries lately. Can’t wait to try this.
This smoothie looks delicious! And I love that it combines so many good-for-you ingredients. I’ve been on a big blackberry kick as of late and I love that they showed up here. Such a great way to boost the fiber-content of this already fab beverage.
That is one gorgeous, bright smoothie!
Beautiful! I was planning on using this recipe for my project (the one I e-mailed you about a few months ago), so I will def use this gorgeous picture.
PS Is that a stainless steel straw? Where did you get it?
Oh that’s awesome! And yes, please use the new photo. 🙂
I bought a four pack of these stainless steel straws on Amazon http://astore.amazon.com/eatbirfoo-20/detail/B000AUIN18
WOW< what a gorgeous smoothie! And I just happen to have blackberries in my freezer, from my bushes last summer. (Gotta get them used up!)
The color of that smoothie is out of this world! Sounds yummy – can’t wait to try it. Thanks for sharing.
Love the photos and the color of the smoothie. The color reminds me of a drink Superman would drink! 🙂 I love the recipe, I’l have to try it!
Haha, I get what you mean about old photos! But, I do think it is SO cool to look back at Old Photos and see how far you have come! That just shows you how much further you will go! And to be honest, when I look back at your first post, and see where you are now, it gives me full faith that I too will expand and grow! It’s very inspiring 🙂
Awww. Thanks Paige! 🙂
What a vibrant color smoothie! I have never made a blackberry smoothie so I’ll definitely have to do that soon. Yum!
