Raspberry Lime Smoothie
Hello, gorgeous! I just love the color of this Raspberry Lime Smoothie, it’s definitely a great way to put you in a good mood in the morning. I drink a smoothie almost every morning, unless I go to Starbucks to get a very berry refresher, which are my favorite especially in the summer.
And speaking of favorite, this Raspberry Lime Smoothie is my new favorite smoothie. It’s so refreshing and perfect for the upcoming summer months. I made one this morning and I thought it would be a perfect “adult” drink too, and I totally agree. Add some vodka or some rum and you have yourself a fruity summer drink, perfect for sipping by the pool or the lake!
JUST A COUPLE SMOOTHIE MAKING TIPS:
✓ USE FROZEN FRUIT: I like to use frozen fruit instead of ice cubes in my smoothies. For this smoothie you want to use frozen raspberries, I just buy a big bag of them in my local grocery stores freezer section. But you if want to use fresh raspberries, no problem just add about a cup of ice cubes.
✓ FILL UP YOUR BLENDER: You always want to layer your ingredients softest to hardest (frozen). First, add the limeade, greens, and yogurt. Then, add frozen raspberries.

I don’t see an answer to the question… what is limeade? Is this a powdered drink mix or actual juice?

It’s an actual drink, you can find it by the lemonade.
We just made this smoothie and it was awesome!
Can you substitute lime juice for the limeade?

I have never tried it but I don’t see why not! 🙂
its mouth watering. i m going to try this on my weekend. thanks for sharing it
I love this recipe.
Your images are so beautiful!!
I’m new to smoothies and this one looks simple and delicious! I’m a bit confused as to what to do with the lime though. I Googled lime garnish and it says it’s to decorate your drink. So is the lime actually part of the recipe and go in the blender with everything else or is it just for decorating your glass? Thanks! 🙂

Yes, just a optional lime slice for decoration on the glass! 🙂
Possible stupid question alert: What is limeade?
It looks like a raspberry ocean. If you know what i mean. Fantasy ocean. It feels so good just look at it. Definitely on my freaking hot summer days and nights drink resolution list.
Just made this, it was so yummy! Would definitely work great as an adult beverage!
This smoothie looks like the epitome of refreshing! I love the amazing pink color, too!
