Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup (150g) frozen mixed berries
  • 1 medium ripe banana
  • 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened coconut milk (can substitute almond or oat milk)
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 1/2 inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
  • 1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds
  • 1/2 cup (120g) Greek yogurt (optional, can use dairy-free yogurt)
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • 3–4 ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel and grate the fresh ginger, peel the banana, and measure out your frozen berries, coconut milk, and other ingredients. Add ice cubes if desired for extra cold smoothie.
  2. Pour 1 cup (240ml) unsweetened coconut milk into the blender jar. Add 1 cup (150g) frozen mixed berries, 1 medium ripe banana, and 1/2 cup (120g) Greek yogurt if using.
  3. Add 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, grated fresh ginger (about 1/2 inch piece), and 1 tablespoon ground flaxseeds.
  4. Add 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup if you want it sweeter, and squeeze in 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice.
  5. Secure the lid and blend on high for 45-60 seconds until smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
  6. Adjust consistency by adding more coconut milk if too thick or a few more ice cubes or frozen berries if too thin, then blend again.
  7. Pour into a glass or travel cup and serve immediately. Optionally garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or fresh berries.

Notes

Use frozen fruit to avoid watering down the smoothie with ice. Fresh ginger is preferred over dried for better flavor. Adjust turmeric amount if using fresh root as it is stronger. Stir smoothie before drinking to mix settled flaxseeds. Store in airtight container in fridge up to 24 hours; avoid freezing.
