A Berry Berry Berry Minty Smoothie

All this week, I've been following a smoothie diet so the only things I can consume are smoothies from mixed frozen berries with water and protein powder. It tasted great for the first few cups, but then it became bland. So I rebelled just a little, and I started adding a bit of other things to the smoothie. Hey, it's the only thing I'm eating, so better make it taste good.

It is so heavenly-tart, refreshing, with a hint of mint and cream. THE Best way to wake you up: better than coffee.
