Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1/2 cup/75g aronia berries (black chokeberry washed)
- 2 apples (cored and diced)
- 1 banana (peeled and cut)
- 125 ml cold water
- 1 tbsp honey (or sweetener of your choice)
- 1 pinch ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Prepare the ingredients as instructed.
- Put the fruit and berries into the blender. Add the honey, water and cinnamon, or, alternatively, add them later to the mix. Blend until smooth.
- Note #1: The aronia berries' skin is tough so small pieces might remain. Add more water to the mix if needed.
- Note #2: Some people like cooking the aronia first, to improve the taste. I suspect this comes at a price of some of the vitamins and minerals disappearing. If you feel like cooking them first, you can let them simmer in water on a saucepan, covered, for some 10 minutes. Remember to stir often.
- Pour the ready smoothie into glasses, and decorate as you like!
