Instructions
  1. Step 1: Gather Ingredients. Start by measuring out all your ingredients. This will make the blending process go smoothly and quickly.
  2. Step 2: Add to Blender. In your blender, add the 8 ounces of unsweetened cranberry juice, followed by 6 ounces of plain Greek yogurt.
  3. Step 3: Toss in Frozen Raspberries. Next, add 3/4 cup of frozen raspberries. Using frozen fruit will give your smoothie a thicker consistency.
  4. Step 4: Add Vanilla Extract. Pour in 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract for that wonderful flavor enhancement.
  5. Step 5: Sweeten to Taste. If you like your smoothie sweeter, now is the time to add your choice of sweetener. Start with a small amount and adjust according to your taste preferences.
  6. Step 6: Blend Until Smooth. Secure the lid on your blender and blend all the ingredients together until smooth and creamy. If the smoothie is too thick, you can add a bit more cranberry juice to reach your desired consistency.
  7. Step 7: Serve and Enjoy. Pour your smoothie into a glass or jar, and it's ready to enjoy! Garnish with a few fresh raspberries or a sprig of mint if you're feeling fancy.
