Directions
Firstly, gather all the ingredients. Saving your time to look for ingredients while blending will help make things smoother.
Place the Greek yogurt into your blender first. Doing so ensures a smoother blend and ease of mixing, as I've personally found by trial and error.
Add the strawberries, banana slices, and blueberries. Remember to wash your fruits carefully - they're not only healthier, but they also taste so much better when cleaned well!
Pour in your choice of milk. Almond milk tends to complement the taste, but feel free to use your preferred milk.
If you prefer it a bit sweeter like me, add in the honey or maple syrup. This is completely optional and can be tailored to your preference.
Lastly, toss in the ice cubes. This gives the smoothie that refreshing chill factor that takes it from good to great.
Blend everything together until it's smooth - usually about 1-2 minutes. I recommend stopping midway and stirring it a bit to make sure all items are well-blended.
Pour the smoothie into glasses and enjoy immediately for the best flavor. Trust me, it's delectable when fresh.
