A generous amount of pear and banana makes this blueberry smoothie soft and naturally sweet. The yogurt adds a light tang and creaminess.

Creamy and mild, with sweet pear and banana, a fruity blueberry note and a light yogurt tang.
Pear and banana form the sweet, creamy base here, while the blueberries bring colour and a fruity tartness. The result is a lilac smoothie that is mild enough for children and adults alike.
Natural yogurt adds protein and a gentle acidity that keeps the sweetness in balance. Blueberries are known for their anthocyanins, the pigments that give them their colour. Because the recipe uses water rather than milk, the smoothie stays light despite the yogurt.
Not with dairy yogurt. With soy yogurt it is.
