This cranberry juice smoothie is made with frozen raspberries, banana, and yogurt for a creamy drink with just the right amount of sweetness! Try this with dairy-free yogurt for a vegan smoothie or add protein powder for a post-workout treat!

I’ve been craving all sorts of smoothies lately, and this cranberry juice smoothie has been a great way to switch things up! The flavor is a delicious combination of sweet, tart, and creamy flavors. You can add honey for a little extra sweetness, but I like it with a bit of a tart finish!

Is cranberry juice good for you?

Yes! Cranberry juice has lots of great benefits, but make sure you’re using 100% cranberry juice. Many “cranberry juices” are made with apple juice concentrate or contain loads of added sugar. Look for a brand that is only cranberry juice!

Can I make a cranberry juice smoothie without yogurt?

Absolutely! You could substitute Greek yogurt for a dairy-free option like coconut milk yogurt or almond milk yogurt. Or you can use almond milk or oat milk; instead, it’ll just be a little less creamy.
