Ingredients
  

Smoothie base
  • 2 cup frozen mixed berries
  • 1.5 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 banana
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 0.5 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.5 cup ice cubes optional

Equipment

  • 1 stand mixer

Method
 

Blend the smoothie
  1. Add frozen mixed berries, banana, almond milk, honey (or maple syrup), and vanilla extract to a blender.
  2. Blend until smooth and creamy, stopping once to scrape down as needed for an even texture.
  3. Add ice cubes for a thicker texture if desired.
  4. Blend again until fully combined and the ice is mostly broken down for a colder drink.
  5. Pour into glasses and serve immediately.
  6. Garnish with fresh berries if desired.

Notes

For the creamiest texture, blend right after adding the ingredients and scrape down the blender jar once mid-blend. Store leftover smoothie in a covered container in the fridge for up to 24 hours; shake or blend briefly again before drinking, as it will thicken. Freezing is not recommended for best texture. For a dairy-free, vegan option, use maple syrup instead of honey.
