Instructions
- Add milk to a high-speed blender.
- Add the frozen blueberries and plain Greek yogurt.
- Add the ice cubes and fine sea salt.
- Blend on low speed for 10 seconds, then add the vanilla extract, increase to high speed and blend for 35–50 seconds, until completely smooth.
- Check consistency and blend in 1–2 tablespoons additional milk if too thick, or a few extra ice cubes/frozen blueberries if too thin.
- Pour into a 16-ounce glass and serve immediately.
Tips
- Use whole milk or a milk alternative for a creamier texture. Fresh blueberries can be used but add ice to maintain thickness.
