  • 150g frozen summer berries, or forest fruits
  • 150g low-fat natural yoghurt
  • 750ml 1% fat milk

Swap ideas

If you can't tolerate dairy products, use soya-based milk and yoghurt as an alternative.

Method

  1. Slice the banana into a blender and add the frozen fruit (there's no need to thaw it first).

    Information:

    Try using frozen summer berries or frozen raspberries instead of forest fruits. Adding them to the blender while frozen makes an icy-cold milkshake.

  2. Add the low fat yoghurt and milk. Blend together for 15-20 seconds, then pour into 4 glasses.

    Information:

    If you don't have a traditional blender, use a hand-held stick blender instead.

  3. Serve and enjoy whilst cold!
