Description

This Lemon Blueberry Smoothie is a creamy, refreshing blend of tart lemon and sweet blueberries, made with wholesome ingredients like banana, yogurt, and almond milk. Packed with fiber, antioxidants, and omega-3s, it’s perfect for breakfast, a snack, or a light dessert.


Ingredients

1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

1 ripe banana

1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or any milk of choice)

1/2 cup plain yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt)

Juice of 1 lemon

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional)

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional)

Ice cubes (optional, for a colder smoothie)


Instructions

  1. If using fresh blueberries, rinse them under cold water. Peel the banana and juice the lemon.
  2. Add the blueberries, banana, almond milk, yogurt, and lemon juice into a blender.
  3. Add honey or maple syrup and chia seeds if using.
  4. Blend until completely smooth. Adjust consistency with more yogurt or ice cubes if desired.
  5. Pour into a glass and garnish with blueberries or a lemon slice if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use frozen fruit for a thicker, colder smoothie.
  • Substitute banana with avocado or mango for a different flavor or texture.
  • For vegan option, use dairy-free yogurt and maple syrup instead of honey.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 24 hours; stir before drinking.
  • Can be frozen in popsicle molds or ice trays for later use.
