Smoothie drink recipes are one of the best ways to enjoy fruits, and you can get as creative as you want!
The amount of different combinations you could make with smoothie drink recipes is limitless and you may discover a new flavor that you really enjoy.
It can be a lot of fun coming up with different recipes to try, and there’s always a chance of learning something new.
If you mess something up you just add more ingredients and change the taste. Smoothies don’t require knowledge of temperature control or need to be put in the oven, so there are not a lot of ways that it could go wrong.
Trying out new ways to mix fruits and vegetables into a smoothie is also a great introduction to the kitchen if you are not super familiar with baking, cooking, or making food in general.
This post is all about 7 smoothie drink recipes.
There are several smoothie recipes on the blog already, but with so many options, maybe you don’t have a clear idea of what you’re craving.
The amount of choices may feel overwhelming, so I thought I would share some of my favorites, to help narrow down the long list.
With so many variations of each smoothie, you can also pick and choose what ingredients you want to keep and also add some of your own if you have ingredients that you like and work well with the other flavors.
There is also a post dedicated to sharing some of the different ingredients you can use for the base and extra add-ins that you may not have thought about.
You can think of it as a template, and it is under Healthy Breakfast Smoothie Recipes. While the name does suggest using it as an alternative to a sit-down breakfast, you can really have smoothies at any time.
Smoothies are a great snack and are super filling depending on what you include. Whether you need something as a quick boost of energy after a workout or a nice tropical smoothie to make you feel like you’re on vacation, there are recipes to fit your mood.
You may have a hard time choosing between all of the delicious options!
If you enjoy mixed berries like strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries, then this smoothie recipe might be up your alley.
This was one of the first smoothie drink recipes that came out on the blog and has been a staple of mine even before that.
An Easy Post Workout Smoothie like this one is just like the name suggests- easy to put together and absolutely delicious.
If you prefer a stronger flavor of one of the ingredients, this recipe is also super simple when it comes to changing the amount of each ingredient, and you can add more or less of something if you enjoy it or dislike it.
Next up, is a smoothie bowl that was supposed to turn out differently, but one of my friends had the brilliant idea of adding raspberries to it and it turned out tasting better than I could have ever imagined.
This Raspberry Smoothie Bowl That Is Insanely Delicious Takes a little bit more effort because you have to freeze some of the ingredients, but it is truly worth it.
It really does taste like you’re eating some kind of dessert and it is fairly low-calorie compared to eating actual ice cream.
On a hot summer day, this has become one of my favorite treats to enjoy, and the ingredients are so minimal that it makes it extremely stress-free to prepare.
Moving on to the third favorite smoothie recipe that I have made and shared is this Tropical And Delicious Mango Summer Smoothie.
It may just be because, at the moment, summer is right around the corner, but this is one of those flavors that transports you right to a tropical vacation.
While lying outside on a chair or a towel, sipping this mango smoothie makes everything feel complete.
If you are a fan of tropical flavors like mango, coconut, and pineapple, then this is a recipe you will want to try.
When you need some vitamin C, this Orange Creamsicle Smoothie has got your back! With a fresh orange and some orange juice, you will really taste the flavors.
Orange is such a classic flavor and doubles as a really good fruit for desserts. The same goes for the smoothie, you can dress it up or dress it down as I would say.
Whether you want it plain and simple with only the base ingredients or with added toppings like whipped cream, you can do whatever feels right.
With only a couple of ingredients, you can turn this smoothie into a yummy dessert!
Looking for something quick? There are also smoothie recipes for when you are in a pinch and just need something that only takes a couple of minutes.
If you happen to like the combination of strawberry and banana, this 5-Minute Strawberry Banana Smoothie Recipe is a great option.
Something about strawberries and bananas really takes me back to when I was a kid and would have only strawberry and banana smoothies for some reason.
Maybe it was because I was picky, but that combo of flavors is something that I think back to you when I’m making smoothies.
Although a strawberry and banana smoothie is quite simple, that is the beauty of it. That’s why it also happens to be perfect for when you are in a rush.
So far all of our smoothies have centered around fruit, but this smoothie is not quite like that. It does still have strawberry in it, but this time it has a slightly different flavor profile.
Healthy Smoothies With Almond Milk like this one is the smoothie for peanut butter and jelly lovers.
With a mix of strawberry and peanut butter and a healthy serving of spinach, this smoothie tastes not at all what it looks like.
I had no idea when I was making this recipe that it would turn out the way it did, but it ended up tasting amazing and way better than I expected.
It was a trick of the eyes for sure, and I think I ended up drinking the entire glass. If you are thinking about trying out more smoothies with greens in them, this recipe is a great place to start.
Last but not least, if you want something even greener in terms of look, there is An Insanely Yummy Must-Try Green Smoothie Recipe to look forward to.
This smoothie definitely has a different taste than most of the other smoothies you may have tried. The main flavor is apple which is not as commonly used in smoothies as much as other ingredients like strawberries or raspberries.
However, the flavor is unique and it tastes great. A little bit like apple juice, but not exactly.
If you want to branch out and try different flavors, or maybe apples are all you have at home and you don’t want to go to the store to grab other ingredients, then I recommend giving this one a try.
And that is all! These are 7 of the smoothie drink recipes that will get you through the day with a little bit more energy.
These smoothie recipes are so delicious and if you ever get food fatigue from one of them, you have a ton more to rotate through.
