Four-Ingredient Cherry Perfection!

This blueberry smoothie has been a staple in my home for years, so naturally I had to start experimenting with variations.

I honestly didn’t think anything could top the original, but then I swapped the blueberries for cherries (kept everything else the same), and it totally blew me away! The sweet and tart flavor from the cherries was incredible.

It’s such a fun way to mix up our morning smoothie routine, and best of all, it’s still just as simple.

Slicing fresh bananas to place in a freezer bag for the recipe preparation.

Cherry Smoothie Recipe Ingredients

Ingredient	Tip or Swap Idea
Unsweetened vanilla almond milk	Any milk works here! Try oat, soy, or dairy milk.
Frozen sweet cherries	Dark sweet cherries are best for flavor and color. Can sub with frozen mixed berries.
Frozen banana coins	Slice & freeze ripe bananas ahead of time. Add more or less for sweetness or thickness.
Almond butter	Peanut butter works great too! Or use sunflower seed butter to keep it nut-free.

Quick Tip

Freeze the banana to make the smoothie thick and creamy. After buying (so you don’t foget), peel it, slice into coins, and freeze in a bag or container overnight.
