Today just for a short while the sun peeped out from behind the clouds and it almost felt like a crisp spring morning.To celebrate the sunshine I whizzed up this mixed berry smoothie for brunch. The vibrant colour really cheered me up and it tasted really amazing.
I also wanted to showcase another addition to my props, namely the two matching milk bottles and the the pretty mint green ceramic tray. The bottles were rescued from my sisters glass recycling bin and the tray in the picture was a recent Christmas gift from a friend .The tray also comes with matching bowls too so no doubt it will appear in another food picture very soon. Below is the recipe for my Mixed Berry Smoothie.
Mixed berries with low fat yoghurt and a dash of honey.
Ingredients:
120 ml tub light greek muller strawberry yoghurt
125 g / 4 oz mixed frozen berries(blackberries,blue berries,strawberries)

Method:
1. Place the yoghurt, water, honey and berries into a blender jug and whizz them up.
2. Pour the berry smoothie into two milk bottles and serve immediately.

This looks like an incredibly refreshing drink Nayna.
Its really summery.
These sound delicious. Smoothies are my go to breakfast at the moment. Perfect for when in a rush.
Lovely smoothie mix, and the perfect antidote to a miserable day. I really need to get myself back into them 🙂
Yes if not the taste but the colour is so pretty.
I wish I liked smoothies as these do sound good. I hate the texture of them though 🙁 My son loves them so I might give this a try with him.
For some reason I am not a smoothie fan in the winter! Love them in the summer though
That sound yummy and the colour fantastic.
That sounds nice. Love the little milk bottles.
Oh yum I LOVE smoothies… must try this one 🙂
Oh yummy – this would brighten any day up – my kids would also go mad for it!
I may have a go at making this. Smoothies you buy are quite pricey and I would rather make them myself too
They look lovely. Such a lovely colour 🙂
Ooh I love smoothies these look so tasty.
Ooh fabulous I love mixed berry smoothies – look delish!
Ooh, I love smoothies!
The beautiful colour of the tray makes it look like Summer. What a lovely gift!
Yum! I love mixed berry smoothies! They look especially lovely in the glass milk bottles 🙂
I love those bottles and the tray. We found a lovely shaped glass bottle in the shed of the new house we've just bought and I got really excited when I saw it….I reckon hubby thought I was a bit crackers!
I know the feeling I can't walk past a skip thinking I can take that piece of wood and paint it for food photos.If it wasn't embarrassment of being caught stealing from a skip I would have taken the wood!!! My heart bleeds when I see that aged piece of wood that would be perfect for the photos.
Perhaps a bit premature for "Spring" lol, but looks lovely!
Your sister was going to chuck those bottles away?!?! Tut!
These were juice bottles she is not a foodie and does not have that mind where everything that people dump, foodies want as props!!!lol
So much to love in this photo, the colour of the smoothie, the bottles, the beautiful tray 🙂
That looks yummy. May have to dig my blender out of hibernation
