Let me start by saying I didn't think I would like this very much because blueberries are not my favorite. But, I was looking for a healthy smoothie to make for breakfast and strawberries and blue berries were all I had on hand. I didn't follow the recipe exactly. I used regular orange juice, strawberry yogurt, no ice, and I replaced the sugar with honey. SO good!! I was seriously tempted to make another! It was nice and thick, but not as thick as some reviews said theirs were. Probably because I didn't use ice. Nothing was overpowering. Perfect amount of everything. SO SO good and so healthy!! Easy and quick for breakfast. This is my new breakfast smoothie! UPDATE: I have made this a few more times now. I was in the middle of making it once, and I realized someone drank all the orange juice I had, and soi used milk instead, and I didn't like it as much. It probably would've been better if I added more fruit. The milk was overpowering to me. I've also used a cup of frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries) and followed the rest of the recipe exactly, and it was very good as well, but the original recipe is the best!

Not too impressed with these. They were tart and too thick.

It's good but need to use less orange/pineapple juice. Just made it and I taste mostly the citrus juices and not the berries at all.

Delicious! I love the combination of strawberries and blueberries. I used fat free vanilla yogurt, cut the sugar in half as well as the amount of ice. I garnished it with a couple of frozen blueberries and a little whipped cream on top.

Very good, very cold and VERY thick. Hubs enjoyed it - he said it was pleasantly tart (I forgot the sugar...) but thought that perhaps it might be better without the ice cubes, which he believed diluted the flavor a little. Once I realized I had forgotten the sugar I asked him if he wanted me to add some and he didn't, so apparently the sugar isn't really necessary for this to taste good. It looks really cool when you pour it into the glass because it's so thick it kind of piles on the top, like a thick malt! Pineapple-orange juice was not on hand, but orange juice was, so that's what I used. This is an excellent way to get your calcium (and the active cultures) and vitamins - when I make these for Hubs I feel like I've done something good and healthy for him for breakfast that he probably woudn't do on his own.

My kids thought this was great. I had a frozen banana so instead of ice, I used that. I used Nancy's organic vanilla nonfat yogurt.

I made this recipe and everyone LOVED it! From my meat and potatoes hubby all the way down 4 children to my 17 mos. old. I did add a little milk so that we could easily drink it from a straw.

Very nice. I like the strawberry/blueberry combination. Both flavors stood out well. It was too thick though, so I would recommend leaving out the ice cubes. They are not necessary as you're using frozen fruit anyway. Ice also tends to dilute a smoothie. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

Great smoothie! I used organic fat free plain yogurt, omitted the sugar and added 1/2 scoop of protein supplement.
