Lemon Raspberry Smoothie

            This smoothie is probably the most refreshing and spring type of smoothie that I have ever made! It is obviously cold, filled with raspberry flavor and that touch of lemon that is going to just make the entire smoothie jump at you. It is so delicious, this may become my year round favorite. This smoothie is made with just a few ingredients and is quite healthy. You can whip this together in just minutes when you have a sudden craving.

            I mentioned Spring earlier, to me, raspberries and lemon just make me think of Spring. What does Spring mean at your house? At ours, it is filled with the sounds of kids home from school for Spring Break, which means play dates and hungry kids…all the time. This is the perfect addition to your kitchen arsenal that will help to keep those kids happy and full.

            This recipe includes amounts of ingredients to make 2 smoothies. Please consider this when you need to make more, you will need to multiply and increase the amounts of ingredients. For 4 smoothies, you would need to double the amounts listed for each ingredient.

            To be honest with all of you, I do enjoy making this smoothie for those hot and humid days of summer also. It is quite refreshing and stops me from grabbing snacks all day long. I am not saying that this helps me to lose weight, however, it does prevent me from overeating.

Frequently Asked Questions:

            Could I use a different fruit?

Of course you can! This is my go to recipe for a Spring type of flavor. You could use any fruit, the lemon juice adds a zip to the fruit, making it a brighter and tastier flavor.

            Can I combine fruit?

Certainly! Any combination that you or your troops like, feel free to substitute those in. My recipe is just a basic one with my favorites.

            Why are we using Probiotic milk?

There is not much of a flavor difference to this, it is filled with all the healthy stuff we need in our bodies. If you are really against this, feel free to use Almond milk or regular milk. Probiotic milk is filled with Calcium and Protein and Vitamins.
