How Many Calories Is In a Berry Smoothie?
Let’s compare the berry smoothie calories from some of the places you can buy a pre-made smoothie from:
- Smoothie King – Berry Punch – 400 calories for a 32-ounce smoothie.
- Tropical Smoothie Cafe – Blueberry Bliss – 340 calories per serving.
- Jamba – Electric Berry Lemonade – 360 calories per serving.
As you can see, they contain double the amount of calories the smoothie I have today for you has.
However, homemade smoothies are typically between 200-300 calories per serving, depending on what you put in them.
Even the healthiest of smoothies can pack a lot of calories. If you are dieting, 350-400 calories for a smoothie may be a bit too much.
Are Berries Smoothies Good For Weight Loss?
Berry smoothies contain numerous health benefits, such as vitamins and minerals.
Shop-bought berry smoothies may contain quite a lot of calories, but you can make your own at home, and customize them to suit your goals and needs.
So yes, berry smoothies are good for weight loss, they keep you full, and provide your body with essential nutrients.
Starting the day with a berry smoothie is a great low-calorie alternative to some other breakfasts.
Smoothie Variations And Recipe Notes
Here are some alternative ingredients you can use:
- Substitute the blueberries for other berries of choice, just make sure they are frozen.
- You can use any other unsweetened dairy-free milk of choice, however, this will impact the total calories for the smoothie.
- Use vegan yogurt, for a vegan-friendly version of this recipe.
Equipment:
If making a single-serving smoothie, I highly recommend that you use a personal blender.
A Nutribullet for example is ideal.
If you are however doubling or tripling the recipe, a higher-capacity blender is ideal.
