FAQ
Can you make a raspberry smoothie without yogurt?
Yes, frozen berries, protein powder, and almond milk make it creamy without yogurt.
Is this a low carb or keto smoothie?
Raspberries are one of the lowest carb fruits, making this a great low carb smoothie option. Our smoothie recipe has 21g of carbs per serving and 10g fiber. For readers who calculate net carbs, this would be 11g carbs per serving. You can reduce the carbs to fit a keto diet by reducing the raspberries.
What protein powder works best?
Vanilla plant-based or vanilla whey both work well. We used a low carb vegan protein powder sweetened with monk fruit instead of sugar since it's anti inflammatory and doesn't add sugar.
