Berry Smoothie with Rice Milk
Taste
Light and fruity, naturally sweet from the rice milk, with a mild berry tartness.
About this smoothie
The old title called this a yogurt smoothie, but the recipe never contained yogurt; the creaminess comes from the banana. Rice milk is one of the mildest plant drinks, with a natural sweetness from the rice, and it is free from dairy, soy and nuts, which makes it a practical choice for many households.
The three berries balance each other: strawberries sweet and fragrant, blueberries soft and mild, blackberries tart and dark. A frozen berry mix works well and makes the smoothie colder. It is light enough for a snack and suits a relaxed breakfast.
Bartender tips
Rice milk is thinner than cow's milk, so a frozen banana helps if you want more body.
A frozen berry mix can replace the three fresh berries at any time of year.
Variations
With yogurt
Add 2 tbsp plant-based or natural yogurt for a creamier, tangier glass.
