Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut water
- 1/2 cup frozen cherries
- 1/2 cup mixed berries
- 1 banana
- 1 tablespoon chia seeds
Instructions
- Gather all ingredients and ensure they are fresh and properly measured. Take the frozen cherries and mixed berries out of the freezer to slightly soften.
- Peel the banana and break it into chunks to help it blend more easily.
- Add the coconut water to the blender first, which helps create a smoother blending process.
- Add the frozen cherries and mixed berries into the blender, placing them on top of the coconut water.
- Place the banana chunks on top of the berries to help create a smoother blend.
- Sprinkle the chia seeds over the other ingredients to distribute them evenly.
- Secure the blender lid tightly and blend on high speed for 45-60 seconds until all ingredients are completely smooth and well combined.
- Stop the blender and check the consistency. If too thick, add a little more coconut water. If too thin, add a few more frozen berries.
- Pour the smoothie into two glasses, dividing equally.
- Optional: Garnish with a few whole berries or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top for presentation.
- Serve immediately and enjoy the refreshing, nutritious smoothie chilled.
Tips
- Chill Factor: Use frozen fruits to create a thicker, more refreshing smoothie without watering it down with ice.
- Blending Sequence Matters: Always add liquids first, then soft fruits, and finally frozen ingredients to ensure smoother blending.
- Chia Seed Pro Tip: Let chia seeds sit for a minute after blending to help them fully hydrate and create a better texture.
- Temperature Trick: For an extra cold smoothie, you can freeze your banana beforehand.
- Customization is Key: Feel free to swap fruits or add a scoop of protein powder for extra nutrition.
- Cleanup Hack: Rinse your blender immediately after use to prevent ingredients from hardening and making cleaning difficult.
