A Berry-Delicious Smoothie
Smoothies are the ultimate way to start your day, and sometimes, simple really is best. I love to throw in veggies now and again (like in my hidden cauliflower smoothie), but this classic strawberry smoothie is all about letting that sweet, fruity flavor shine—no sneaky greens or superfoods, just pure, delicious berries in all their glory! This recipe is perfect for those mornings when you need a quick, refreshing boost (that’s secretly healthy). Plus, with just 4 ingredients, it’s ridiculously easy to whip up, meaning it’s your new go-to for busy days or a post-workout pick-me-up. Trust me, one sip, and you’ll be hooked!
Pick Up These 4 Ingredients
This is just an overview—jump to the recipe card for exact measurements!
Frozen Strawberries: While you can use fresh or frozen strawberries for this recipe, I prefer using frozen. They make the smoothie icy cold! Milk: You can use any milk (dairy or non-dairy) here. Almond milk is a great lower-calorie option in this smoothie. Honey: A dash of honey adds the perfect sweetness to this healthy strawberry smoothie. You can also swap sugar or a low-calorie sweetener like stevia. Vanilla Extract: Top everything off with some vanilla extract, which completely transforms the flavor into something like strawberry pie!

Flavor Switch-Ups
This simple strawberry smoothie is adaptable and easy to customize with different ingredients! Berries: You can replace the strawberries with any other frozen berry you prefer or have on hand (blackberries and blueberries are great!). Green Machine: To increase the nutrients, throw in a handful of spinach, kale, chard, lettuce, or collard greens! Creamy: For an extra creamy texture and flavor, add a banana, a drizzle of nut butter, half an avocado, or a spoonful of strawberry yogurt or Greek yogurt. Protein Boost: Add some cottage cheese (like we do in this cottage cheese smoothie recipe) or a scoop of your favorite protein!
