Berry Almond Smoothie– Easy, Healthy & Quick Breakfast Drink
A creamy and refreshing berry almond smoothie made with almond milk, strawberries, blueberries, almonds, and chia seeds. Ready in just 2 minutes.
Equipment
- 1 Blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 1/2 cup strawberries fresh or frozen
- 1/2 cup blueberries fresh or frozen
- 6 almonds
- 1 tsp chia seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the berries by washing the strawberries and blueberries thoroughly if using fresh fruit. If using frozen berries, add them straight to the blender without thawing.
- Pour almond milk into the blender first. Add the strawberries, blueberries, almonds, and chia seeds afterward. Starting with the liquid helps the ingredients blend more easily.
- Secure the blender lid and blend on medium speed for a few seconds. Then increase to high and blend for about 30 to 40 seconds, until the smoothie looks completely smooth and creamy.
- Check the consistency and taste. If you want a thinner smoothie, add a little more almond milk and blend again. If you prefer it sweeter, add 1 soft date or a little maple syrup.
- If you used fresh berries and want the smoothie colder, add a few ice cubes and blend for another 10 to 15 seconds. You can skip the ice when using frozen berries.
- Pour the berry almond smoothie into a glass and serve immediately. For a simple finish, top it with a few fresh berries, sliced almonds, or a sprinkle of chia seeds.
Frozen berries naturally make the smoothie thick and chilled, so extra ice is usually not necessary.
