Detoxifying Beet & Berry Smoothie (3 Ingredients!)

This was really good and the color is so pretty. Can’t wait to have it again tomorrow morning.

Incredibly refreshing and naturally sweet–this recipe turned me from a skeptic into a beet fan! I subbed pom juice for the apple. I am still surprised at how much I enjoy this smoothie. Highly recommended.

When I made this I also added a vanilla boost drink and extra fruit as I like my smoothie thick. It was very good. I will be keeping this recipe.

You state 3 ingredients but you use more, why say 3 ??

Good combination of flavours!

It was good! I like beets, but the beet taste was sutle, not over powering. I will definitely continue to make this!

YUM!! I didn’t have apple juice, and didn’t have time to make it, so I added half an apple and water. I also gave it a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Very good!

Yum! Love this smoothie. I made as directed with the mint and coconut on top—great combo! I made it in my basic mini food processor without an issue. Thanks for a great recipe!

I tried making this smoothie this morning. I found the dirt taste of the beet very strong making the recipe as written. I ended up adding more bananas and strawberries, and adding pineapple until it covered up the dirt taste enough that it was palatable. In the future I will keep the beet ratio very low and the fruits much higher!

Ya know, I usually go with whats in the fridge, still fresh but unless I eat it soon I’ll be throwing it away.
Today I blended 1 celery rib, about a 2 inch end of cucumber, 1/2 honey crisp apple, 1/2 a medium size raw beet (peeled and diced), some frozen blueberries, 1/2 a Roma tomato, 6-7 sprigs of parsley, 3 ice cubes about 1/4 cup water, pureed and then poured into a large jar, then added about 1 cup of almond milk into blender to remove the balance of the puree, shake together and deeeeelicious!
Was hoping to drink the second half later but it’s really good!

This recipe was delicious, healthy and nutritious. this is something all ages of people can enjoy. Thanks

Good Morning I just made this smoothie it was delicious didn’t have any apple juice I used coconut water instead, can’t wait to try it with the apple juice next time. Thanks for the recipe

We made this with a raw beet, frozen mixed berries, a handful of frozen spinach, and cranberry-grape juice. I know that’s different enough that it’s barely your recipe anymore, but this was the only recipe we found that was simple and sounded delicious. Wonderful, thanks!

I was looking for ways to use my leftover beetroot and this smoothie recipe was perfect. I made a few tweaks so I could use what I had on hand and it was still tasty! I replaced the apple juice with cranberry juice and use mixed frozen berries as opposed to frozen strawberries. I can’t get over how good the colouring looks too!

This was amazing. It taste so good and I like the easiness. My niece hated beets because of how they looked. I made this smoothie and told her it was a strawberry smoothie…. lol I know horrible… she drank every bit. When I told her the ingredients she couldn’t believe it… now she makes this three times a week. Great recipe!!!

Oh.my.goodness. This is fabulous and so easy to whip up in my Thermomix, where I can grate the beets then add the rest of the ingredients. Very delicious with just the slightest hint of beet taste, mostly strawberry and banana. And I can totally see this as a frozen treat. Thank you!

Tried this with applesauce + water instead of apple juice because that’s what I had and it was excellent! Put the mint right in the blender and it came out really refreshing. Going to have it again tomorrow!

I modified a bit the recipe for 2: 1 small beet (double the recipe), frozen strawberries, double frozen bananas, coconut milk and cherry/apple juice. Was delicious and my boyfriend said is his favorite smoothie so far! Thank you :))

I made this and my picky kids LOVED it. Thank you! Everything you post is a sure thing.

Loved this as a morning smoothie. I added a cup of spinach to add some greens to it. Husband loves it as well. Thanks for the recipe.

I made this with spinach and two ice cubes added. So good! Will make again!

I added a small amount of fresh ginger to give it some zing. Delicious!

That hit the spot after a walk in the sunshine.
I only had frozen beets and frozen mixed berries but it was a lovely combo. I had to use twice as much apple juice to get it to blend due to frozen beets maybe??
Topped it with the shredded coconut just for fun.
Thanks for the recipe!

Thank you so much for this idea!! I’ve been wanting to use beets more, and this was the inspiring kick I needed!! I’m not one to measure – and the fastest way is the best for me, so here’s what I did:

– 1 beet
– 1 apple
– 1 mason jar frozen strawberries
– 1 mason jar unsweetened oat milk (still a bit sweet!)

Filled 2 mason jars perfectly! The oat milk def added a distinct flavour and sweetness, which was great. It was fairly liquidy – use less if you’d prefer a thicker smoothie.

Perfect summer cold, clean drink! Blended the mint right in = yum!

I made this last week, with rice milk instead of apple juice to keep my sugar intake somewhat lower. It was so incredibly good, I’m graving it again! I think I’l blend some fresh mint into it today. Thanks for the recipe, Dana!

My 5 yo called this “beet-licious”! He and I have been known to put down some beets, but when it’s a 1000 degrees who wants to cook down beets for an hour? This is such refreshing way to enjoy beets! I cut the juice a little and ended up adding more water, mostly to make it easier for him to drink. Thank you for another great recipe!

I’m not very fond of beets but this is delicious! I don’t have the cookbook so i used organic apple juice. I plan to have this every day. Thank you for the great recipe!

Great smoothie and a way to get my husband to eat veggies. Sweet and refreshing, you can taste the beets but it is very mild. Love the color as well. I will definitely make this again. I did add the frozen 1/4 banana. I also added about 1/4-1/2 cup of water as my blender/shake maker needed the extra liquid.

This is was so simple and delicious! I sometimes over complicate smoothies :D I forgot apples, so I substituted coconut water and it was delicious! It felt light enough to have as a snack rather than breakfast for me! Thank you~

Made it with some tweaks:
– used more beets (one whole);
– applesauce instead of apple juice;
– threw in a handful of baby spinach;
– a few frozen grapes and couple of peach slices along with strawberries.
Result: YUM! and the colour is mesmerizing :))

This smoothie is WONDERFUL. I just got back from a workout and decided to give it a try. Fast, easy and DELICIOUSLY ? nutritious. I drank the whole thing, no splitting it in two in me! and no leftovers — Piggy ? me ?

Reviewing – DELICIOUS and sweet and really satisfying.
Reporting back – see my question below: I had no strawberries, so used some frozen blueberries instead plus some frozen green bananas (I always use unripe) as my fresh fruit. And I DID try 1 scoop of my vegan protein powder (NuZest Clean Lean Vanilla) and I took your suggestion to skip the apple juice in that case, subbing unsweetened almond-cashew milk. It was wonderful!
NOTE: adding several mint leaves to the blender with everything gave it an extra POP of sweetness! I add mint (or fresh ginger) to most of my smoothies.

This smoothie is delicious and filling. I make it for breakfast and drink it on the way to work. Sometimes I add other fruit like pineapple and blueberries. A full five plus rating!!!
