This is a refreshing slushy beverage that you can enjoy as a light breakfast. The cranberries do make this drink somewhat tart, so you might want to add a little more sweetener (or some agave nectar for a healthy and natural alternative) if you find it’s too tart for your taste. Another thing you can do to enhance the flavor is to add some freshly squeezed orange juice to the smoothie.
Weight Watchers Cranberry Smoothie recipe
Ingredients
2 cups frozen cranberries
2 cups cranberry juice
2 teaspoons artificial sweetener
2 cups ice cubes
