Rainbow Smoothie

Perfect for breakfast or a healthy treat, it’s a delicious way to brighten your day! It’s also a fun rainbow recipe for St. Patrick’s Day. This rainbow smoothie offers a vibrant blend of flavors in one glass.

Each layer presents a unique fruity experience. It’s a celebration of tropical and berry notes with combinations like tangy mango, sweet strawberries, creamy bananas, and refreshing blueberries. Every sip is a colorful burst of freshness and natural sweetness that’s both delicious and energizing.

Ingredients:

• Bananas – You may be able to find frozen bananas in the frozen fruit section of the grocery store to save yourself time.  
• Vanilla Greek yogurt – You can use regular or plain yogurt instead of Greek or vanilla. 
• Frozen raspberries
• Frozen strawberries – In the pink layer, you could also try using pink dragonfruit in place of the strawberries. 
• Cranberry juice – Although the color will be less vibrant, you could substitute all of the juices for coconut water. 
• Mandarin orange – A regular orange will work too. You’ll only need about ⅓ of the orange.
• Frozen mango
• Orange juice – This can be store-bought or freshly squeezed. Or you can use carrot juice for a more vibrant orange color.
• Frozen pineapple chunks 
• Pineapple juice – Feel free to juice your own pineapple juice if you have a juicer. 
• Fresh spinach 
• Apple juice
• Frozen blueberries – You can try blackberries, too, for a darker purple color. 
• Blue spirulina powder – This is an organic food coloring. Or blue food coloring can be used. This helps the blue layer become more vibrant. Blue spirulina is easily found at most health food stores. 
• Coconut water – This is great for hydration. 
• Grape juice – Make sure to use purple grape juice and not white grape juice for a bright color. 
• Vanilla almond milk – You could use unsweetened almond milk, coconut milk, cashew milk, or regular cow’s milk.

2. bowls 
3. small measuring cup

What else can I add for additional flavors?

This rainbow smoothie is just as flavorful as it is colorful. You’ll love the tropical and berry flavors as they come together in this wow-worthy smoothie. Here are a couple ideas to add a bit more flavor and intensity.

• A drop of vanilla or almond extract to each flavor
• You can add a drop of food coloring to each one for intense color.

Notes

Why mint syrup over simple syrup?

Infusing a simple syrup with mint ensures a stronger mint flavor if desired. You can muddle the mint with the syrup in your glass instead if desired.
