It's 80 degrees today. In all honesty, that's not too bad. So far I'm doing okay but it is only early (early early) July 😳. So...smoothie weather for the next couple months? Starting strong with a summer cherry strawberry smoothie.
Cherries and strawberries are some of my favorite fruits of this warm season. Although, I feel like I say that about every fruit that graces the produces aisle in the summer. Blueberries, peaches...the list goes on. Guess I just love ALL the summer fruit!
However, we'll be sticking with just cherries and strawberries for this recipe 😆. It is a summer cherry strawberry smoothie after all!
After the two name sake ingredients, just throw some spinach/kale, yogurt, coconut milk, flax seeds, and a banana in a blender. Aaaand...blend!
Summer cherry strawberry smoothie for days. Enjoy!
