Ingredients
  

Smoothie Ingredients
  • 1 cup unsweetened cranberry juice
  • 1 ripe banana 1 ripe banana (frozen if possible for extra creaminess) Frozen banana recommended for a creamier texture.
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks Can use canned pineapple; no judgment here.
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt Adds a protein boost.
  • 1 tablespoon honey Optional, can adjust to taste.
  • a handful of ice cubes For a cold, refreshing drink.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Gather your tools: Grab a blender.
  2. Add the cranberry juice, banana, pineapple chunks, Greek yogurt, honey, and ice cubes into the blender.
  3. Blend on high until creamy and smooth. Stop occasionally to scrape down the sides.
  4. Taste and adjust sweetness or creaminess by adding more honey or yogurt, if desired.
  5. Pour into a chilled glass and garnish, if desired.

Notes

Using frozen fruit enhances creaminess and temperature. For a smoothie bowl, reduce liquid and top with granola, nuts, or berries.
