Sometimes simple smoothies are the best smoothies and this is a very simple 2-fruit smoothie with yogurt for protein. Adding Stevia can give it a taste you don’t like, but try it first. If you don’ t like it, use a little sugar or honey to sweeten the smoothie.

Blend Time:

Blend until creamy and delicious, which won’t take long.

I love the name of this smoothie: The Blue Cranberry. It sounds like a fancy restaurant or jazz nightclub. But in reality it is a smoothie that will help prevent bladder infections and fight against painful urinary tract infections or UTI. How does this help?

Huh? Let’s just say that cranberry juice targets the bacteria that causes bladder infections and zaps it. Plus, this smoothie tastes great. Your lips and your bladder will thank you. That actually sounds weird, but you get the point. Let’s hear feedback for the blueberry, cranberry smoothie. Good or Gross?

Blend Time:

Place the cranberry juice in the blender first, yogurt second and frozen fruits last. Start on a slow speed until the blades are smoothly turning and then push to high for 30 seconds or so.

Of course, a cranberry smoothie is not your cure-all for bladder or urinary infections, so see a doctor if yours persists. But drinking cranberry juice can help prevent you from having an infection so enjoy knowing you are drinking a healing smoothie.

Blend well and drink your healthy green smoothie. Yields 4 cups or 2 servings, as I feel 16 ounces is one serving for a smoothie.

A lot of people are fans of the Ninja Blender and it does a great job of making smoothies. And while I think most blenders can handle simple smoothie recipes (ice can be tough for some), the Ninja Blender is a great choice. They also provide some smoothie recipes that are great as well to use with their blender or your own choice of blender. Here is one that I particularly like, the Blueberry Power Blast Breakfast smoothie.

Instructions for your Ninja Blender:

Add all ingredients to the Single Serve, starting with the water. Pulse about 7 times to pulverize frozen fruit and then hold to blend thoroughly. Naturally, your blender will make just as good of a blueberry smoothie as the Ninja.
