Balsamic Roasted Berry Smoothie {Vegan)

Jump to Recipe

Ok, back to the smoothies today.

My easy refreshing balsamic roasted berry smoothie is a perfect brunch treat. This is a must have vegan recipe for the family. recipesfromapantry.com

This balsamic roasted berry smoothie has been whipped up pretty regularly in my kitchen recently. Put it this way, it going to be one of my main summer drinks of choice.

This balsamic roasted berry smoothie is awesome because:

  • It is chock-a-block full of summer fruits aka raspberries, blackberries and red and black currants.
  • Their flavours are richer and deeper because the berries are roasted till they are bubbling in their own almost caramelised juices.
  • The berries are roasted with rich dark balsamic vinegar which really brings out their flavour.
  • This treat is vegan so it is suitable for a wide range of guests.
  • And guest will certainly agree with you especially when the smoothie is served in these extremely cute glasses.

It is cool and refreshing, sweet but tart with deeper fruity flavours, aka it has got everything you need in a summer flavoured smoothie. And you can quite easily make this into a smoothie bowl too and top with a little helping of granola and a tonne extra fruits. That way it becomes a much more filling breakfast or brunch treat.

Actually, talking about brunch, you can certainly serve this balsamic roasted berry smoothie along with waffle with a cherry sauce, orange and thyme waffle with a blue berry compote, semolina pancakes with maple and nutmeg roasted plantain and a fruit pancake pizza. So much choice.

This recipe is very flexible as well. Please do feel free to use any combination of berries that you have in your fridge. One tip here is to roast the berries a couple of days before hand and keep them in the fridge. So, you can easily grab a handful and whip up this smoothie when you need it.  Anything for an easier life.

    No kidding! I never would have thought of putting balsamic in my smoothie. This sounds delicious and I love maple syrup being used as sweetener.

  2. I’ve had roasted berries and I’ve had berries with balsamic, but never roasted berries with balsamic in smoothie form! Looks so pretty! I make a smoothie pretty much every day for hubby and I and this would be something we would love!

    I love red and black currants. I used to eat them growing up in Poland. It’s so difficult to find them though in US. I also love the addition of balsamic. Great idea.

    I wouldn’t have thought of using balsamic vinegar in smoothie but like the idea! The smoothie looks delicious!

  5. I’m obsessed with balsamic anything and I love berry smoothies, so this is a match made in heaven! The glass jars are super cute too; I love nothing more than sipping my smoothies in cute glasses!
