Ingredients
  

2 cups mixed berries (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries)

1 ripe banana

1 cup Greek yogurt (or a dairy-free yogurt alternative)

1 cup coconut water (or any fruit juice of your preference)

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

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Ingredients: Start by thoroughly rinsing the mixed berries under cold water. Remove the green stems from the strawberries and set them aside. Peel the ripe banana and cut it into smaller chunks to facilitate blending.

    Blend the Base: In a blender, combine the rinsed mixed berries, banana chunks, Greek yogurt, coconut water (or your selected juice), honey (if using), and vanilla extract. Blend on high speed until the mixture reaches a smooth and creamy consistency, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.

      Taste and Adjust: Give the smoothie base a quick taste. If you find it needs more sweetness, add a little extra honey or maple syrup, then blend again briefly to evenly mix in the sweetener.

        Pour into Molds: Carefully pour the luscious smoothie mixture into silicone ice cube trays or any mold you have on hand. Be sure to leave a small gap at the top of each compartment to allow for expansion as the mixture freezes.

          Freeze: Place the filled trays into the freezer and let them freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until the smoothie cubes are completely solid.

            Store the Cubes: Once the cubes are fully frozen, gently pop them out of the trays. Transfer the smoothie cubes into a freezer-safe bag or an airtight container to keep them fresh, and store them in the freezer for up to 2 months.

              Enjoy Your Cubes: When you're ready for a refreshing smoothie, simply toss 2-3 smoothie cubes into a blender along with a splash of your favorite milk or juice. Blend until smooth for a delicious treat! For a finishing touch, consider garnishing your smoothie with fresh mint leaves for a burst of color and flavor.
