Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use fresh berries instead of frozen? Yes. Fresh berries work well, but the smoothie will be thinner. To keep that thick, creamy texture, add a handful of ice cubes when blending.

What kind of Greek yogurt is best for smoothies? Plain Greek yogurt is ideal. Full-fat creates the creamiest texture, while low-fat or nonfat options still deliver plenty of protein with fewer calories.

Can I make this smoothie dairy-free? Absolutely. Use a dairy-free yogurt alternative like coconut or almond yogurt and swap in your favorite plant-based milk.

Is this smoothie good for weight loss? Yes, it can be. The combination of protein and fiber helps you feel full longer, which may support weight-loss goals when enjoyed as part of a balanced diet.

Can I make this smoothie ahead of time? This smoothie is best enjoyed fresh, but it can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Give it a good shake or stir before drinking.

How can I add more protein? Add a scoop of vanilla or unflavored protein powder, or simply increase the amount of Greek yogurt for an extra protein boost.

Is this smoothie kid-friendly? Yes. The naturally sweet berry flavor is a favorite with kids. For extra appeal, add a splash of vanilla or a drizzle of honey.
