Berry Breeze Smoothie:

This smoothie is super easy to make and perfect on a hot day. It's also loaded with antioxidants. But I don't need to tell you all of that because this has tons of berries in it, and who doesn't love berries? I sure do, especially in the summer (which is almost here, by the way).

Ingredients:

2/3 cup frozen mixed berries (I used strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries)

1/2 cup spinach (optional)

4 ice cubes

1/2 cup grape juice or freshly-squeezed orange juice

1/2 cup water

1 tbsp. ground flax (optional)

A few drops of lemon juice

Makes 2 smoothies.

Total Cook Time: 5 minutes.

Instructions:

Blend all of the ingredients together, add more water or juice as necessary to achieve the desired consistency.
