Ingredients

1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries

1 ripe banana

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free alternative)

1 cup almond milk (or any milk of your choice)

1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, adjust sweetness to taste)

1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon chia seeds (optional for added fiber)

Ice cubes (optional, if using fresh cranberries)

Instructions

Prepare the Ingredients: If you're using fresh cranberries, rinse them thoroughly. If they're frozen, there's no need for prep.

    Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the cranberries, banana, Greek yogurt, almond milk, honey/maple syrup (if using), and vanilla extract.

      Add Chia Seeds: Include the chia seeds if you're opting for added nutrition.

        Blend to Perfection: Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy. If you prefer a colder smoothie, add ice cubes and blend again until you reach your desired consistency.

          Taste and Adjust: Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness if necessary by adding more honey or maple syrup.

            Serve: Pour the smoothie into a chilled glass and, if desired, garnish with a few whole cranberries or a sprinkle of chia seeds on top.

              Enjoy: Drink your cranberry bliss smoothie while fresh for the best taste and nutrition!
