The Ultimate Blueberry Smoothie Recipe

On one of my many health kicks, I sought out some smoothie recipes for my blender; quite frankly, they were vile. The result was often a glass of brown sludge that was tortuous to drink. Or rather, gulp slowly because they were so thick and fibrous. Who are these masochists who down this gloop every day I wondered?

‍

It wasn’t long before I had created my own recipe filled with ingredients I would gladly stick with. I’m delighted to share it with you and to spare you the tortuous brown sludge and the self-defeating feeling of failure because you just can’t bear it. Let’s normalise the creation of healthy habits that the weak/sane (delete according to your perspective) find tasty and can maintain. Enjoy my Ultimate Blueberry Smoothie recipe, and here’s to making health kicks taste nice.
