Lemon Basil Smoothie
This week my wife purchased a small container of sorbet for me called lemon basil sorbet. I thought it was delicious and the flavor was very unique as I wasn’t used to tasting basil in a cold beverage. Then I thought this would make a great smoothie because a sorbet is really just a frozen smoothie in many ways. So here is a smoothie recipe for a lemon basil smoothie. I am very curious to get reactions to this one from our readers. Please comment below how this turned out for you. Believe it or not I do post honest, and respectful negative opinions and comments so please let me know what you thought about this smoothie after making it yourself. I must admit I’m getting more adventurous in my combinations and this is a step in that direction.
Lemon Basil Smoothie Ingredients:
- 2 cups lemon sorbet
- 1 cup milk
- 6 ounces vanilla yogurt
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest (finely grated works best)
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons fresh basil (chopped)
- 1 cup ice
As usual put in a blender and let ‘er rip. Blend until smooth and when you pour it in your glass be sure to scrape all that tasty basil out of the blender.
This makes 3 servings, but 2 servings is cool too.
Banana Raspberry Yogurt Smoothie Recipe
I don’t care for raspberries and putting them in a smoothie isn’t something I usually do. Mixing them with other fruits certainly helps and once blended their velvet texture, which I don’t care for either, isn’t an issue, but I still don’t try to fit them in my smoothie mixes. But my wife and kids like them so I keep a few bags in case they ask for them. I’m also sure that many of the readers like them too, so here is another raspberry smoothie for everyone else. ;-)
I love soymilk and almond milk so feel free to use either for this recipe. I also leave it to you to choose sweetened and/or vanilla flavoring. I personally would choose unsweetened vanilla almond milk, but your tastes may be different.
Ingredients:
- 1 container (6 oz) 99% Fat Free French vanilla yogurt
- 1 1/2 cups soymilk or almond milk
- 1 cup unsweetened frozen or fresh raspberries
- 1 medium banana
- add a few ice cubes if you don’t use frozen raspberries
You know the drill…
Place ingredients in blender or food processor. Cover; blend on high speed about 30 seconds or until smooth. Serves 2.
The Carb-o-nator Smoothie
Yeah, yeah, I know. Carbs are bad. Well, not when they are being delivered in a great smoothie recipe. Most fruit smoothies are full of delicious “evil” carbs, but this one pours it. Now you can pour it out, the Carb Smoothie, that is.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup yogurt (any flavor, but vanilla is a good base)
- 1 cup apple juice
- 1/2 cup blueberries
- 1/2 cup strawberries
- 1 small banana
- 2 cups of ice
Blend, drink and exercise off all those carbs. ;-)
