Preparing The Ingredients

Start by gathering fresh strawberries and raspberries. Make sure to wash them well under cool running water. This helps get rid of any dirt or tiny bugs. Pat them dry gently with a clean towel or paper towel.

Next, remove the green tops of the strawberries. You can do this with a small knife or just pinch them off with your fingers. Keep in mind that you want to use about a cup of strawberries for a rich flavor.

For raspberries, you won’t need to do much since they come ready to use. Use about half a cup of these little red gems. They add a nice tart taste to your smoothie.

You’ll also need some almond milk, or any non-dairy milk of your choice. This will make your smoothie creamy and smooth. Pour about one cup into your blender or mixing bowl.

Finally, get some ice cubes ready. About a handful should do the trick to give your smoothie a cool, refreshing kick. If you like your smoothie super cold, feel free to add more.

Variations To Try

• With different kinds of milk: For a creamier texture, replace water or juice with almond milk or coconut milk. This adds richness and a hint of flavor too.
• With lemon or lime: Want a bit of a zing? Add a splash of lemon or lime juice. This brings out the vibrant fruit flavors and gives your smoothie a fresh twist.
• With sweeteners: For those who love a little extra sweetness, try adding a teaspoon of agave syrup or maple syrup. This keeps it vegan while adding a delightful sweetness.
• With greens: If you’re in the mood to experiment, throw in a handful of spinach or kale to boost its nutritional value. You’ll get a green smoothie without a strong taste of greens.
• With seeds: You can also add a spoonful of chia seeds or flaxseeds. They not only thicken the smoothie but also provide a good source of fiber and omega-3s.

Storage Tips

• When you have leftover strawberry raspberry smoothie, you might want to store it for later. Pour the smoothie into an airtight container or a mason jar. Make sure to leave some space at the top for expansion.
• Store your smoothie in the fridge for up to 2 days. Give it a good shake before drinking because it might separate over time.
• For longer storage, you can freeze your smoothie. Use freezer-safe containers. When you’re ready to enjoy, thaw it in the fridge overnight. Shake or blend it again to get the best texture.
• If you like smoothies on the go, you can freeze them in ice cube trays. Pop a few cubes into a blender with a splash of your favorite plant milk, blend, and enjoy!
