Nutrition Tip: Sneak beets into your smoothies for vibrant color and reap the benefits! Beetroots are rich in minerals that improve circulation and lower blood pressure.
No need to worry, you don’t need a fancy juicer for this one. Beet juice luckily comes in a bottle that you can purchase. Like bananas, beets are rich in potassium. They’re also high in fiber and like blueberries, the juice is a great dietary source of antioxidants.
Key Ingredients for this Beet Blueberry & Banana Smoothie
- Beet Juice
- Apples
- Blueberries
- Banana
- Agave nectar
Feel free to switch up agave with honey. Adding Gala apples into this blend creates a vitamin C boost (14% in Galas). We also recommend Gala apples because of the mild, sweet, crisp taste. However, Fuji and Honeycrisp apples are sweet as well.
For a more tart taste, we recommend Granny Smith or Golden Delicious apples. If you’re not feeling a smoothie, freeze leftovers in popsicle molds on a hot day and enjoy a healthy dessert.
