How to prepare your smoothie

Prepare the ingredients: If using fresh berries, wash them thoroughly. For a colder, thicker smoothie, you can freeze the berries and banana in advance.
Mix the ingredients: Place the berries, banana, yogurt and milk in a blender. Add honey or agave syrup if you prefer a sweeter taste. Blend on high until the mixture is smooth. If the smoothie seems too thick, add a little more milk until you reach the desired consistency.
Serve immediately: Pour the smoothie into a glass, garnish with a few whole berries on top and enjoy immediately. Bright colors and fresh flavors are best enjoyed chilled.
