Ingredients

1 cup frozen mixed berries
3/4 cup Greek yogurt
1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk
2 tbsp ground flaxseed
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp cinnamon

Blend 45 seconds until completely smooth and thick.
Pour into a glass and eat with a spoon if it is thick enough to stand a spoon in.

Tips & swaps

Frozen berries make it thicker than fresh and are cheaper year-round.
Grind flaxseed fresh if you can — pre-ground goes rancid faster.

Keeping it

Drink fresh.
