Just look at that incredible rich purple colour!  That’s what you get when you mix red and blue – or strawberries and blueberries – Pure Purple Beauty.

This smoothie is made without yoghurt (but you can add Greek yoghurt if you wish), and I like it with coconut milk, but it’s equally amazing with almond milk (in fact any dairy free milk) or regular milk.  And you can use fresh or frozen berries – for a really cold smoothie in summertime go the whole hog and freeze the banana too!

Let’s talk health benefits of berries!

  • Blueberries: These little blue guys are one of the most nutrient-dense foods in existence and contain high levels and a very wide variety of antioxidants.  Yes Please!  It is said that blueberries help to combat ageing and reverse inflammation. They are rich in fibre so they support healthy digestion, and being low in calories, they aid in weight loss.
  • Strawberries: With their rich red colour we KNOW they’re rich in antioxidants, they also contain many health boosting vitamins and minerals.  They are said to boost immunity and fight arthritis and gout, as well as improving brain and heart function.

Basically, what are you waiting for?  Get out that blender and make yourself a SUPER FOOD Antioxidant Berry Blaze Smoothie immediately, if not sooner.
