UKCranberry Apple Smoothie
Serves 1
5 minute prep time

Do you have extra cranberries in your freezer waiting to be used? Every time we make this Cranberry Apple Smoothie it reminds us of the holidays. Vanilla Vega® Protein & Greens helps to balance the tartness from the berries and apple, and the spice combination of cinnamon and ginger gives it a warm, festive flavor. We hope you enjoy!
Ingredients
- 1 serving of Vanilla Vega® Protein & Greens
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup frozen cranberries or ½ cup of leftover homemade cranberry sauce
- 1 tart apple, cored
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- A few cubes of ice
Preparation
-
Add all ingredients except for the ice to your blender and blend until completely smooth. (This might take a few extra seconds in order to break down the apple skin.)
-
Toss in a few ice cubes and continue blending, adjusting the thickness by adding more if you wish.
-
Pour into a tall glass and serve.
