Frozen blueberries straight from the freezer turn this banana smoothie thick, frosty and intensely purple. It is closer to a milkshake than a juice.
1
banana ripe
70 g
blueberries frozen
2 tbsp
natural yogurt
5 oz

1 tsp

Ice cold, thick and creamy, with sweet banana and a deep, slightly tart blueberry flavour.
This is the frosty take on the banana blueberry smoothie. Frozen blueberries are harvested ripe and frozen quickly, and they chill and thicken the drink without watering it down the way ice cubes would.
Banana provides sweetness and creaminess, yoghurt a light tang, and whole milk makes the whole thing round and mild. Blueberries contain vitamin C and fibre, and their colour becomes particularly deep when frozen. A good choice for hot days or as a cool breakfast in any season.
Yes, but add a few ice cubes or a frozen banana for the same thickness.
Yes, it is mild, sweet and contains no caffeine.
It is best fresh; after standing it loses its frosty texture.
