Instructions
- Add the milk to a high-speed blender first.
- Add the frozen blueberries, frozen blackberries, and vanilla extract next.
- Add the ice cubes and a pinch of fine sea salt.
- Blend on low speed for 10 seconds, then increase to high speed and blend for 35–50 seconds until completely smooth.
- Check the consistency. If too thick, blend in 1–2 tablespoons of additional milk. If too thin, add a few extra ice cubes or frozen fruit and blend again.
- Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.
Tips
- For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with almond, oat, or soy milk. To make it creamier, add a spoonful of Greek yogurt or a banana.
