Triple Berry Almond Smoothie

It's smoothie time for 2015 and there are so many things I love about this smoothie. From the color to the health benefits this smoothie is a winner for all. Rich with antioxidants from the berries this smoothie does all kinds of good things for your body. From eye health to reducing the chances of heart disease this smoothie is tasty and beneficial.

When I first made this smoothie I couldn't stop staring at the color. It's a rich and beautiful purple. With that being said, I would not suggest wearing any white while drinking this smoothie just in case you spill some. Blueberry stains are hard to get out of clothes. 

Triple Berry Almond Smoothie

Yield: 2 - 8oz cups

Ingredients:

1/4 cup Strawberries

1/4 cup Dark Red Cherries

1/4 cup Bluerries

1 cup Silk Almond Milk

1 tablespoon Honey

1/4 cup Vanilla Yogurt

1/2 cup Ice

Instructions:

1. Place ingredients in a blender.

2. Start the blender on low speed and progress to high speed.

3. Blend all ingredients until combined and smooth.

This is going to be my go to smoothie for a while. I am not a cherry lover, but surprisingly think they add an extra sweetness to this smoothie and I love the almond milk that is used. I can't wait for summer so I can get some fresh Rainier cherries from the Farmers Market to go in my smoothies.

Notes:

Fresh fruit is preferred for this particular smoothie, but if you can't find fresh fruit this time of year frozen will be just fine.
