Berryliscious Beet Smoothie

By Cheryl Thomson, for CNM

Berries and beets might seem like an unlikely pairing but they work a treat in this recipe to create a delightfully vibrant smoothie with a sweet yet slightly earthy flavour.

This nutritious blend will provide a sustained release of energy whilst also bringing plenty of soluble and insoluble fibre as well as probiotics to support good digestive health – an ideal way to kick start a busy day.

Any berries will work well in this recipe so mix it up according to availability. I like to keep a couple of punnets in the freezer as the frozen fruit gives a deliciously thick and creamy texture. Or just add a few blocks of ice towards the end of the blending process.
