Method

Smoothie Base

Combine ingredients

Add 1 cup frozen raspberries, 1 cup acai juice, 1 cup nonfat vanilla frozen yogurt, 1 cup skim milk, and 1 scoop whey protein powder to a blender.

Add optional items

If you want a slightly sweeter drink, add 1 teaspoon honey or agave. If you prefer a thicker, more icy texture, add 4 ice cubes.

Blend

Secure lid and blend on high for 30–60 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth and uniform. Stop and scrape down the sides with a spatula once if needed, then blend again for 10–15 seconds.

Check consistency & adjust

If too thick, add 2–4 tablespoons (30–60 ml) skim milk and pulse to combine. If too thin, add a few more frozen raspberries or 1/4 cup frozen yogurt and blend briefly.

Serve

Pour the smoothie into a 16–20 oz glass or bowl immediately.

Garnish & Serve

Top with 5 fresh raspberries and sprinkle 1 tablespoon chia seeds or granola if desired.

Insert a straw and serve right away for best texture and flavor.
