Ingredients
  

  • 1 packet acai puree about 100 grams
  • ½ cup blackberries
  • ½ cup grapes
  • 1 teaspoon dried goji berries
  • 1 small banana
  • 1-2 single ice cubes depending on desired consistency
  • Optional ½ cup plant-based milk for thinner consistency

Instructions
 

  • Add ingredients to blender: Combine acai berries, grapes, blackberries, banana, and ice cubes (if using) in a blender.
  • Blend: Blend ingredients until smooth, about 30-60 seconds, adding more ice or plant-based milk until you reach your desired consistency.
  • Pour and serve: Pour the smoothie into a cold glass, top with goji berries, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Make it a bowl! Use this smoothie recipe as the foundation for your next smoothie bowl. Top with colorful superfoods such as strawberries, coconut, goji berries, bee pollen, and more.
  • Make it a meal! Make this superfood snack more filling by adding oats, chia, or a protein like yogurt or protein powder, along with healthy fat such as nut butter.
  • Tip: Use a frozen banana to reduce the amount of ice cubes needed, which will produce a smoother (less icy) texture.
  • Tools needed: traditional blender, food processor, or handheld blender
  • Leftovers & Storage: This simple smoothie recipe can be made ahead of time and frozen until ready to serve. However, depending on your freezer it may become hard the longer it’s frozen.
  • Nutrition: Nutrition information is calculated without optional milk ingredient. This recipe is vegan, gluten-free, high in potassium and vitamin C and, depending on the type of plant-based milk used, may be a good source of protein.
