Ingredients
- 1 ½ cup blueberries fresh or frozen
- 1 ½ cup blackberries fresh or frozen
- ½ cup elderberry syrup
- 32 drops Vitamin D-3 drops 4000IU
- 4 ounce olive leaf complex
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in blender and puree until smooth.
- Pour into two 16-well standard ice cube trays and freeze until firm enough to pop out. Remove the smoothie cubes from the trays and transfer to an airtight, freezer-safe container until ready to use.
- To use, add 4 cubes per every 16 ounce smoothie.
Notes
- Other fruit or berries can be substituted for the blackberries and blueberries. Strawberries are very high in vitamin C and would make an excellent substitute.
- See this blog post for DIY Black Elderberry Syrup.
- Recipe should yield 4 cups puree. If needed, add water to get it there.
