Best Berry Smoothie

This is hands down my favorite berry smoothie ever! With four kinds of berries, a touch of honey or agave and no added processed sugar, this is the BEST berry smoothie ever. (Bonus: it's super easy!)

No matter the season, I can never seem to get enough smoothies in my life. And this one is one of my absolute favorites because it's so easy and hardly requires minimal ingredients. Plus, it's delicious. 🙂

If you're on a homemade smoothie mission like me, you can also check out two more of my faves: this strawberry banana protein smoothie and this unbelievably good green smoothie. And for another sweet and refreshing berry treat, you can try this delicious fruit and yogurt parfait.

🍱 Storage

Berry smoothies will stay fresh in the fridge for up to 24 hours but are best when consumed immediately.

Smoothies don't stand up well to freezing.

🎉 Top tip

If you like your smoothies extra icy, you can freeze the banana ahead of time (for at least a couple hours, or overnight.) Or, just add several ice cubes before you blend to achieve the same effect.

Enjoy!
