Cucumber Cranberry Smoothie

We have been loving having a freezer filled with smoothies. Out of all the ways I have shown you to freeze them, I think our favorite is definitely the mason jar option. It is so versatile and easy to take out of the freezer and hit the road! I also like that it if you wait long enough, it becomes more of a fresh juice than a smoothie! What has been your favorite way to freeze smoothies?

Our last smoothie of the month is my Cucumber Raspberry Smoothie. Raspberries can be so tart, but the cucumbers along with the basil make this smoothie delectable! The color is perfect for upcoming Cinco De Mayo celebrations, so serve it up as a kiddie option or I am sure it would taste yummy with some tequila added in! A great variation of the good ol' margarita! 

Ingredients:

Yields: 3 cups

1 cup coconut water

1 ½ cup frozen raspberries

1 cup diced English cucumbers (no seeds)

3-4 fresh basil leaves

Directions:

Blend all ingredients, enjoy cold! 

Enjoy!! 

Tune in next month for an ingredient that is hearty and will please any freezer!! 

Happy freezing,
