Hey friends, it’s smoothie time!The seasons will be changing soon but we’re still celebrating and holding onto summer with a berry smoothie.

This Berry Hemp Smoothie is extra special because it has Hemp heart Bites in it and it’s part of my Drink the Rainbow smoothie series! It has been a little while since I made a smoothie for that series and since this one is such an awesome color, it fits perfectly! We have done smoothies in pink, yellow, and green, now it’s time for purple 🙂

Manitoba Harvest sent several of us Sweat Pink bloggers a fun Hemp Heart Bites snack pack complete with a wooden calabash snack bowl and insulated snack pouch. Pretty cool!

Hemp Heart Bites are made with only 5 ingredients (4 if you don’t count sea salt) and these ingredients are organic. Hemp Heart Bites are also non-GMO verified and certified kosher. These don’t have wheat or gluten ingredients, but they aren’t certified gluten-free and are made in a facility with nuts so if you have allergies, check with the company on that.

These little snacking gems are full of healthy fats, minerals like magnesium and manganese, fiber, and whole-food protein. They make the goodness of hemp hearts portable! These little snacks are just the right amount of sweet and crunchy.

Instead of just doing a basic product review, I wanted to share something my readers could really use, so I created this fun Berry Hemp Smoothie with Hemp Heart Bites. It was totally unplanned that the color of the smoothie matches the package colors!

This smoothie is a great meal in a glass: it has healthy fats, fiber, protein, and fruit. It has everything! Make this in the morning for a quick breakfast or whip it up as a nutritious snack between meals.

  1. Great idea for a smoothie and such a pretty one at that! I have only eaten the bites as they are and never thought of blending them up. I enjoy snacking on them throughout the day. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
