Super Easy Money Saving Smoothie

1. 1

   Start by adding the juice, yogurt and berries to a blender, and pulse until mixed well. Add the ice, small amounts at a time, pulsing until well blended.

2. 2

   I learned through many trial-and-errors that it is best to do the ice last as the liquid already in the blender will help keep the contents near the blade, preventing air pockets. Add as much or as little ice as you want to get the consistency you desire. I like 'em thick, so I do roughly 2 cups.

3. 3

   About 270 calories and $1.25 (a savings of about $4.25 at a typical smoothie shop).

4. 4

   Optional: add a banana for a boost of energy and/or if you need to cut the tartness of the berries.
