Can you put cranberries in a smoothie?

Of course you can! Not only are frozen cranberries easy to store without wastage, but they are perfectly suited to smoothies. You can freeze fresh cranberries for storage if you prefer, but many grocery stores carry convenient bags of pre-frozen cranberries, too.

In fact, grocery stores often stock a whole range of frozen berries, so feel free to add any extras you like! Blueberries and raspberries are equally great options if you fancy mixing your recipe up a little.

Are cranberries good for you?

Cranberries are the perfect combination of tasty and healthy. Some of the many health benefits of cranberries include their high nutritional value and antioxidant content. On top of this, these gorgeous berries are both low in sugar and packed with fiber. 

Are smoothies good for meal prep?

Smoothies are perfectly suited to meal prep, and can be whipped up extra-fast by creating ‘smoothie packs’. All you need to do is split your cranberries and prepare your oranges (and any other fruit you’d like to add) into single portion sizes before freezing them all together in one bag. 

Stick them in the freezer and there you have it – an instant smoothie, whenever you please! Simply take out your pre-cut and measured fruit and blend it up with the yogurt, milk, juice and sweetener.
