Creamy and fruity, with tart berry notes, a mellow banana body and a light almond finish.
Blackberries grow wild across much of Europe and North America, and late summer is their peak season. Their flavour sits between sweet and sharp, which makes them a natural partner for mellow banana and nutty almond drink.
Blackberries provide vitamin C and fibre, and their dark colour comes from anthocyanins. Out of season, frozen blackberries are an easy swap and make the smoothie even colder and thicker.
