Vitamix Smoothie Recipes Beets
How great would it be if we could all hang out in my kitchen and you could taste the recipes I post here in person? It’s one of my fondest wishes, especially when I’m making bold, borderline-suspect claims…like the fact that today’s Beet Smoothie recipe is completely delicious, and you should try it even if you don’t like beets.
A sip! Just a sip. Pretend we are in the kitchen together, and I’m offering it to you. You’ll be a Beet Smoothie believer too, I can feel it.
Since I don’t have this luxury, I’m going to call on our virtual circle of trust and assure you that this Beet Smoothie is creamy, sweet, and scrumptious.
Healthy Beet And Kale Smoothie
Like their cousins sweet potatoes and carrots, beets have a natural sweetness that makes them a good choice for dessert and breakfast endeavors (in addition to the classic Beet Salad). After having success baking with beets to make a Pink Cake (SO YUMMY), a smoothie felt like the next step.
To make this smoothie plenty sweet and not so (how do I put this delicately?) beet-y, I added plenty of other fresh ingredients:
Plus, you are receiving the wonderful benefits of the pineapples and blueberries at the same time (more vitamins! extra nutrients! anti-inflammatory! digestive support!).
Cherry Beet Detox Smoothie
To make the smoothie as fast as possible to prepare, I developed it as a raw Beet Smoothie recipe, so you don’t need to cook the beets first. I find cutting the beet into a rough dice works fine if you are using a Vitamix or similar high-powered blender.
If you are making this smoothie in a lower-powered, regular blender, I’d suggest chopping the beets more finely and adding them a little at a time.
For easy blending guaranteed, you can also make a cooked beet smoothie. Cut the beet into large chunks and steam or lightly boil the pieces until they are tender, then chill them so that your smoothie stays nice and frosty. Cooked beets last several days in the refrigerator, so you can certainly prep a few servings in advance.
Beet Smoothie (you'll Actually Love!)
I haven’t experimented with a canned beet smoothie yet, mostly because I’m not wild about the flavor of canned beets. If you are a fan, you can certainly play around with that route.

Hi, I'm Erin Clarke, and I'm fearlessly dedicated to making healthy food that's affordable, easy-to-make, and best of all DELISH. I'm the author and recipe developer here at and of The Well Plated Cookbook. I adore both sweets and veggies, and I am on a mission to save you time and dishes. WELCOME!This Beet Smoothie recipe is one of my new favorites. It’s an easy way to sneak beets into your day, without tasting too earthy. You can whip it up in less than 10 minutes!
Beets go well with strawberries and banana in this smoothie, but they are mild-flavored enough to pair well with almost any fruit you happen to have on hand. Using frozen fruit gives this smoothie a nice slushy texture.
Blueberry Beet Smoothie
What makes this smoothie extra-special is the addition of fresh ginger. Ginger and beets are a match made in heaven, and cover up any “earthy” flavor you might otherwise taste from adding beet to a smoothie.
Tip: I freeze bananas whole, and break them up into chunks right before blending. I’ve got a whole tutorial on how to freeze bananas if you want extra guidance!
There are several potential health benefits associated with beets, so I love finding new ways to sneak them into my day. Be sure to try my favorite beet salad, too, if you haven’t yet!
Detoxifying Beet & Berry Smoothie (3 Ingredients!)
Dietary nitrate levels peak around 2 to 3 hours after consuming them, so if you’re hoping that eating beets will improve your athletic performance, it’s best to eat them 2 to 3 hours before you need that extra boost.
I only tested this recipe using fresh beets, because that’s what I have on hand most often. If you have some fresh beets that you don’t think you’ll use up right away, you can definitely freeze them for later.
When you freeze fresh beets, be sure to cut them in to chunks first, so they’ll be easy to measure out for this beet smoothie. Check out my how to freeze strawberries tutorial if you want step-by-step photos to follow along with– the method for freezing fresh beets, and other varieties of fruit, will be the same!
Beet And Berry Smoothie
You might need to add a little extra liquid to the blender if using frozen beets, but you can just add that as you go, until the smoothie reaches your desired texture.
This smoothie is a great way to sneak more nutrients into your day, but it’s not hefty enough to act as a meal replacement.
If you have a high-speed blender, you don't need to chop the ginger at all before adding it into this smoothie recipe. If you don't think your blender can pulverize it completely, I'd recommend mincing it with a microplane first, so you don't wind up drinking a big chunk of ginger later.
Beet Smoothie With Blueberries
Feel free to add in any extras you like to make this smoothie more filling. You can add hemp hearts for plant-based protein, or chia seeds or ground flax for extra omega-3 fatty acids and fiber. You can also use your favorite type of milk, instead of water, for a creamier texture.

Vitamix Announces Its 2023 Smoothie Of The Year, Vibrant Beet And Berry Smoothie
Subscribe to my weekly email newsletter for a free 7-day kick start guide. Plus, you'll get weekly meal ideas & new recipes every week!My grandfather always used to say in his Italian accent, “eata youra beets, they are a good for youra blood.” He always told me that carrots were good for my eyes and beets were good for my blood.
He was from Sicily, and at the time, I thought maybe he just thought beets were good for the blood because they are so red.
The day he died I was home alone with him and my younger brother. I was 10 years old, and as sad as it was, I have a good memory about that weekend. The night before he died, we had red beets and fish. He sat at usual spot, at the head of the table, and I passed my beets down to him.
How To Make Beet Juice In A Vitamix: 3 Delicious Recipes
I, along with many people, didn’t know how good beets can taste, because the beets we ate were canned. I grew up and started making my own beets, and discovered my grandfather was right.
Beets are good for your blood and an often overlooked super food, which, when prepared properly, can turn a bad beet experience around.
The proof of how good this is in the video below! Kids love it, and you know we all think kids hate anything healthy. How untrue! This is now a few years old and the boys aren’t as shy but they are still drinking smoothies.
Strawberry Banana Beet Smoothie
The Red Drink was born after the green drink became popular in our home! A days ago we made our first red drink in the Vitamix and I’ll admit, I was a little cautious. The green smoothie has become so popular around here that I didn’t know if I could switch it up a bit. Then last week, I saw a show that highlighted the benefits of beet drinks.
I got out the kale, apple, orange and a handful of strawberries to see if it would taste good. This drink was astoundingly popular because it tastes so good.
I spend my time concerned about my health and the boys’ health. I stopped buying juice this year because I think they have no real benefit for children. They stimulate a sweet tooth and contain empty calories. I decided that if they are going to drink juice, it’s going to be in whole food form with ingredients I can trust.
