Preparation time: 10 minutes
Total time: 10 minutes
Servings: 2

Ingredients:
- 100 g blackcurrants
- 100 g blueberries
- 100 g raspberries
- 100 g redcurrants
- 100 g strawberries
- 1 pomegranate (or 100 ml pomegranate juice)
- 1 blood orange (juice and pulp)
- 1 banana (for consistency)
- 200 ml water or plant-based milk (optional, for a creamier texture)
- Honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

Step by step:

1. Prepare the ingredients: Wash all the fruits well and peel the pomegranate. If you don’t have fresh pomegranate on hand, you can use pomegranate juice, but make sure it’s 100% natural. Blackcurrants, blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries can be used fresh or frozen, making this recipe versatile all year round.

2. In a blender, add all the fruits: blackcurrants, blueberries, raspberries, redcurrants, and strawberries. Each of these fruits not only brings a unique flavor but also a wealth of antioxidants and essential vitamins for your health.

3. Add the pulp and juice from the blood orange, along with the banana. The banana not only improves the smoothie’s consistency but also gives it natural sweetness.

4. To achieve a creamier texture, add 200 ml of water or plant-based milk. This way, your smoothie will be easier to drink and more enjoyable.

5. If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, add a little honey or maple syrup to taste. You can adjust the sweetness according to your preferences.

6. Start the blender on medium speed and blend for 1-2 minutes, or until all the ingredients are well combined and the smoothie has a smooth consistency. If necessary, stop the blender occasionally to stir the fruits with a spatula.

7. Once the smoothie is ready, pour it into glasses and you can decorate each serving with a few berries on top or a slice of orange on the rim of the glass for an attractive look.

Serving suggestions:
This pink smoothie can be enjoyed in the morning as a quick breakfast or as a healthy snack throughout the day. It is perfect for hot summer days or for an energy boost before a workout. You can also add a tablespoon of chia seeds or flaxseeds for extra fiber and omega-3.

Variations:
If you want to experiment, you can add other fruits like mango, kiwi, or peaches to diversify the flavors. Also, by replacing water with Greek yogurt, you can turn this smoothie into a more substantial meal, ideal for breakfast.

Now that you have all the necessary details, all that’s left is to enjoy a delicious, healthy, and energizing pink smoothie! Savor it and share it with loved ones, because health and well-being are better when shared!
