Why we love this recipe
- super quick and easy to throw together.
- a delicious and refreshing way to support your gut health.
- probiotics may enhance the absorption of nutrients, particularly vitamins, and minerals, making them more bioavailable for the body to utilize.
- probiotics in both the kombucha and Greek yogurt could improve digestion and strengthen the immune system.
- I’ve also read that probiotics could reduce grey hair! If that one is true, only my hairstylist will know for sure. 😉

Ingredients
- kombucha – you can use any flavor you like or better yet learn how to make kombucha at home! Kombucha contains various enzymes that contribute to the potential health benefits.
- water – we use filtered water from a Propur pitcher. It is super easy and convenient.
- cucumber – adds a lovely, refreshing element to the smoothie.
- Greek yogurt – we love using the Greek-style as it is thicker and creamier than regular probiotic yogurts. It is higher in protein and lower in carbohydrates. You could also substitute flavored or plain kefir which is more liquid in texture but still creamy and chock full of good bacteria.
- romaine lettuce – any greens work in this smoothie. You can also use spinach, kale, or chard. All of these are good sources of calcium.
- blueberries – any berries can be used. Strawberry is lovely. Use fresh or frozen.
- ice cubes – this helps to make make your smoothie cool and frosty.

Equipment
blender – any blender works for smoothies! It can be a Nutribullet or a high-speed blender such as a Vitamix or Blendtec.
Instructions
Step 1
Place the ingredients in a blender.

Expert tip
Use unsweetened yogurt to reduce sugar.
If you want to sweeten the blend naturally add a smidgen of honey.

Recipe variations
- Add a tropical twist by using frozen mango instead of berries and a splash of coconut water.
- Make it a green goddess by adding more veggies like celery and broccoli.
- Use different flavors of kombucha such as peach, lemon, or strawberry to switch up the taste.
Serving suggestions
- Make a fun presentation by using cute mason jars for serving.
- Serve alongside a slice of whole-grain toast with nut butter, a bowl of protein granola, or a plate of fresh fruits for a well-rounded meal.
