About this recipe
This black currant smoothie is a bold drink made with drinkable yogurt, banana, honey, and water. Black currants provide an intense tart flavor and deep color, banana softens their astringency, and drinkable yogurt forms a pourable, lightly creamy base. Honey balances the fruit’s acidity, while water keeps the consistency light. It is a good choice when you want a fruit smoothie with more intensity than a mild dairy smoothie.
Ingredients
180 g black currants
1 banana
250 ml drinkable yogurt
1 teaspoon honey
100 ml water
Steps
Sort through the blackcurrants, remove the stems and rinse in a sieve. Peel the banana and cut into pieces. Have a fine sieve ready if you want a drink without noticeable seeds.
Put the blackcurrants and banana in a blender, then add the drinking yogurt and honey. Pour in some of the measured water, reserving the rest to adjust the final consistency.
Blend until the fruit is broken down and the color is uniform. Longer blending breaks up the skins but does not remove blackcurrants' natural astringency. If you dislike the seeds, pass the drink through a sieve, stirring with a spoon to retain as much fruit pulp as possible.
Add the reserved water and stir thoroughly. Taste, pour into two glasses and serve immediately. It should retain a clear blackcurrant flavor, mellowed by the yogurt and banana base.
