I really need to invest in a good blender. I always walk by the Vitamix blender at Costco and linger for a while. Right now, I’m using a cheap $20 blender that I picked up for convenience from Target or someplace. It’s the loudest thing ever and takes ten minutes for me to crush four ice cubes. Not to mention that I may or may not have cracked the glass while putting it away and now it has a huge line going down the side.
I’m pretty sure one day it’s just going to burst and all the contents of my smoothie will be covering my walls and ceiling. I’ll keep pushing it until that day comes. Why? Well, it’s hard to have so many appliances when you’re moving every year. I can’t wait until the day comes where I will be living in a house that I own. No more renting, no more moving. Just a permanent space to really call my own personal kitchen.
Until that day comes, I’ll be making simple smoothies. Nothing fancy, nothing too hard to blend down. Who has $500 dollars to spend on a blender, anyways? Ouch.
I bought this acai juice from Costco and it comes in a double pack. It tastes great as is, but even better when you thicken it up with some ice and yogurt. You can replace this brand with any other acai juice you can find in your grocery aisle.
Again, this is just a base smoothie recipe. Feel free to add more ice, juice, or yogurt depending on your desired consistency. You can even throw in some real berries if you’re so lucky!
Ingredients
- 1 cup acai juice
- 1 cup ice
- 3/4 cup vanilla yogurt (can also use greek yogurt)
Directions
- Blend all ingredients until smooth.
I would recommned using a frozen acai puree without soy lecithin. The juice used in this post is so over-processed that they add back coloring to it. acai is one of the darkest fruits so it shouldn’t need any coloring added unless it is destroyed in the processing. also, the juice is just made from the frozen purees by adding a lot of sugar water…not good.
