The summer heat has hit us again. Cool off your day with this Strawberry and Blackberry Smoothie. We picked out the fruits at our local Farmers Market. They were very sweet. You may want to see if you have a Farmers Market near you. You can find plenty of fresh ingredients there.

Ingredients
6-8 Strawberries
4-6 Blackberries
1 Banana
1 Single Serving Cup of Strawberry Flavored Yogurt
Low Fat Milk
Sugar
Ice

Steps
Get your blender out and wash up the strawberries and blackberries. You will want to remove the stems off the strawberries. Next, slice the strawberries into halves. Cut your banana into smaller pieces as well. This will make things blend easier. Once you have that done it’s time to put everything into the blender.

You will want to add the strawberries, banana, and blackberries first. Next, pour in the strawberry yogurt. Pour about 1 cup of low fat milk. You will also add in 3-6 tablespoons of sugar. This is to add a little bit more sweetness into the smoothie. Finally, pour in the ice. We filled a tall glass up with ice cubes to use in this recipe. That will give you an idea of how much ice you may want to add. Hit that blend button after all the ingredients are in there.

Once it’s blended give it a taste. If it isn’t sweet enough, just add a little bit more sugar and re-blend. To serve, just pour out the smoothie into a tall glass and garnish with slices of strawberries. This one will keep you cool.
