Fresh Blueberry & Mint Smoothie

Fresh Blueberry & Mint Smoothie

Prep time: 5 minutes | Servings: 1 large glass


Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups Frozen blueberries (using frozen gives it that thick, chilled texture)

  • 1 cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla)

  • ½ cup Milk of your choice (dairy, almond, or oat)

  • 4–5 Fresh mint leaves (plus more for garnish)

  • 1 tbsp Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

  • A squeeze of fresh lemon juice (to brighten the berry flavor)

Instructions

  1. Combine: Add the milk and yogurt to your blender first (liquid on the bottom helps it blend smoother).

  2. Add Solids: Toss in the frozen blueberries and the fresh mint leaves.

  3. Blend: Start on a low setting and gradually increase to high. Blend for about 45–60 seconds until the mint is fully incorporated and the texture is velvety.

  4. Adjust: If it’s too thick, add a splash more milk. If you want it sweeter, add your honey now and pulse briefly.

  5. Serve: Pour into a tall glass. Top with a few fresh blueberries and a sprig of mint, just like in your photo!


Tips for the Perfect Blend

  • The “Frosty” Look: If you want it extra thick (like a smoothie bowl), use less milk and add 3–4 ice cubes.

  • Added Nutrition: Feel free to throw in a tablespoon of chia seeds or flax seeds; they won’t change the flavor but will add a nice boost of fiber.
