Make It In 5 Minutes
Just toss blackberries, strawberries, a banana, and coconut water into a blender with a few ice cubes. Blend until smooth and creamy. Add more coconut water if it’s too thick. Done. The result: a cold, fruity, deeply refreshing banana blackberry smoothie in under 5 minutes.
Expert Tips
- Frozen fruit gives you the thickest, coldest texture—skip the ice if your fruit is frozen
- Choose a very ripe banana for the most natural sweetness without adding sugar
- If your berries are extra tart, a date or a small drizzle of maple syrup balances things out
Variations and Add-Ins
- Greens: Add a handful of spinach or kale for bonus nutrients
- Protein: Boost it with a scoop of vanilla protein powder or hemp seeds
- Creamy twist: Blend in a spoonful of coconut yogurt or nut butter for richness
- Chia or flax: Add texture, fiber, and plant-based omega-3s
FAQ
I recommend preparing all the ingredients except coconut water in a container and freezing until you're ready to blend. Add the coconut water when you're ready to make the smoothie.
It’s light and may not be enough to tie you over for a few hours. If you want to make it more filling, add protein powder, nut butter, or chia seeds.
It's packed with antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber. It supports hydration, boosts immunity, and helps with digestion—all in one tasty sip.
