- Mixed berries: such as blueberries, strawberries, and raspberries for a burst of tangy sweetness and rich antioxidants. Choose fresh or frozen for convenience.
- One banana: for natural creaminess and an added dose of potassium. Go for a ripe banana for extra sweetness.
- One cup of almond milk: or any non-dairy milk of your choice to make it light and complement the rich flavors. Almond milk adds a hint of nuttiness.
How To Make Berry Boost Juice
- Wash the Berries:
- Rinse all the berries thoroughly under cold water. Slice the strawberries for even blending if needed.
- Combine the Ingredients:
- Add washed berries, banana, and almond milk into your blender. Ensure the banana is sliced if your blender is not high-powered.
- Blend:
- Blend all the ingredients at high speed for about 1-2 minutes or until the mixture is completely smooth. Scrape down the sides occasionally if needed.
- Serve:
- Pour the blended juice into your favorite glass. Your vibrant and flavorful Berry Boost Juice is ready to enjoy.
I personally love using farm-fresh berries when in season, as they elevate the flavor experience. This recipe became a family hit after we made it during a hot summer day while gardening.
