Juicy blackberries & freshly squeezed lemon come together perfectly in this creamy, delicious, & good-for-you Blackberry Lemonade Green Smoothie...
Post updated 3/21/18- This tart & sweet Blackberry Lemonade Green Smoothie deserved some updated photos. I did leave one of the originals down below just so you all can see for yourself why this recipe so desperately needed a little face lift. ;)
In case you all are curious, I am still on my green smoothie kick. It did not end with my Green Smoothie Week.
Although I do have to admit that I am not having one every afternoon like I used to.
But they are still my absolute favorite way to sneak in some extra leafy greens for myself and for baby girl. Seriously you all- she sucks them down like they are the best thing ever.
Like she would have a green smoothie over an Oreo almost any afternoon.
I will take that any day. ;)

I am also having fun playing around with new flavors for my green smoothies... and making them maybe not so green occasionally.
Like with this Blackberry Lemonade Green Smoothie I am sharing with you all today.
I decided to add some of my favorite summer flavors- juicy blackberries & fresh squeezed lemonade- to this creamy, delicious, and good-for-you green smoothie.
This green smoothie is sweet with just a hint of tart from the fresh lemon juice. Perfectly refreshing and satisfying on a warm summer afternoon.
