JENNIFER LOPEZ’ BERRY BERRY GOOD SMOOTHIE RECIPE
We have to say, Jennifer Lopez’ very berry smoothie with yogurt is a perfectly balanced smoothie recipe that our testers all LOVED!
We first saw JLo blend it up on the Dr. Oz show when introducing her new line of protein powder.
This smoothie is light and refreshing, creamy and delicious… and also high in protein to boot!
It has vanilla (or chocolate!) and cinnamon undertones with a brightness provided by the splash of cleansing lemon juice.
Jennifer Lopez’ berry smoothie feels rich and indulgent without a hint of guilt because you know berries are high in fiber, low in sugar and packed with antioxidants, potassium, vitamin A and vitamin C.
This is a great smoothie for kids too!
Try freezing the leftovers in popsicle molds (like one of our recipe testers did!) for a delicious treat later!

BLENDER BABES RECIPE TESTER NOTES
“I really love the sweetness and tartness in this smoothie, it also felt full till 2p, I made this Smoothie at 8A.
Noticed that my energy lasted all the day which is not normal for me as I usally feel downhill around 3p daily!
Bonus is that it has protien that doesn’t ruin the smoothie flavor like few other smoothies.
I HATE when a smoothie has protein added because sometimes it would have the chalky taste, but this one doesn’t with Vega’s Protein!
YUM YUM!”
“I’d suggest to make the cinnamon optional.
I found it took over the smoothie and made it difficult to taste the delicious chocolate + berries combination.”
“The combination of chocolate protein powder with the brightness of the berries is close-your-eyes delicious.
My children loved it!”
HEALTH BENEFITS OF GREEK YOGURT
Greek yogurt is made by separating out the liquid whey, resulting in a thicker texture with fewer carbohydrates and sugar, and more protein than regular yogurt.
Protein is vital to cell growth, building muscle, and repairing tissue. Greek yogurt is a great way to boost your protein levels while avoiding heavy foods like meats.
Greek yogurt is packed with probiotics! Probiotics are microorganisms such as bacteria and yeast that live in your intestines, that help to keep you healthy.
This smoothie was very very good, thanks for the recipe!!
Sounds delicious
It’s sooooo good Natasha! Let us know if you try it! 🙂
Yes, This is berry good since there are many berries (3 important kinds of berries) involved in this smoothie.
Right Geena! We LOVED the combination as well in JLo’s Berry Smoothie! 🙂 HAPPY BLENDING!
Looks like I found my lunch for the today!
