Coconut berry smoothie is light, refreshing, flavorful and low in calories. Perfect for breakfast or a snack for adults and kids.

Sometimes I need something to drink from time to time that isn’t water or a carbonated drink and fruit smoothies are a great alternative.

Often times, smoothies and other drinks can be high in calories and it’s typically not worth sabotaging your goals for a drink, but this coconut berry smoothie is low in calories.

The best part is it only takes 4 ingredients, plus ice. You can make this for breakfast, or a snack in between meals.
