This Elderberry Smoothie recipe is truly a treat while it supercharges your immune function. It's loaded with vitamin C and a unique elderberry extract that also contains powerful herbal supplements—my secret weapon for when I want to stay ahead of flu season or simply give my body the best immune support possible.

Like my Frozen Immunity Cubes, this recipe is another natural remedy, but this time served as a thicker smoothie. And like my Tart Cherry Sleepy Time Mocktail, I rely again on Anima Mundi's elixirs. Their black elderberry concentrate is not your typical elderberry syrup. It's a powerful concoction of double-extracted fresh elderberries and herbal antivirals that work synergistically with these magical little berries to help support a healthy immune system during allergy, flu, and cold season or whenever your body needs inflammation support.

It's a winter must-have, and it helps that it is effective and tastes amazing. This simple recipe takes the flavors to the next level. I promise you, this elderberry smoothie is a treat and perfect for those who love the benefits but not the straight-up flavors of this dietary supplement.

Ingredients To Make Elderberry Smoothie:

Here's what you need to make this elderberry smoothie. I'll leave links to my favorite brands.

Anima Mundi Elderberry Elixir: Known for its immune-boosting properties, elderberries are packed with vitamin C and have been studied for their ability to help reduce the duration of flu symptoms. The Anima Mundi Elderberry Elixir elevates this smoothie with additional herbs for a more comprehensive natural remedy. Ginger, Reishi, and Shiitake are some of the herbal ingredients that help create an immune system powerhouse and increase your anti-inflammatory properties. Plus, I truly appreciate that it's not sweetened with any sugars. Enjoy 15% off with code “NATURALVEGAN.
Frozen Acai and Frozen Pink Dragon Fruit: Both are rich in antioxidants and vitamins, adding vibrant color and a thicker smoothie texture. The dragon fruit adds a delicious tropical flavor while boosting your smoothie with potent antioxidants.
Fresh Blackberries: These dark purple berries bring a burst of flavor and provide even more antioxidants to fight free radicals.
Coconut Milk: It creates a creamy base that’s dairy-free and enhances the flavor and texture while complementing the elderberry extract.
Peanut Butter (or almond butter): Adds a rich, nutty flavor and some healthy fats that help keep you full. Walnut butter left from my Chocolate Chip Walnut Cookies can also work.
Coconut Yogurt: This adds a delicious, creamy base to the smoothie while adding probiotics that are great for digestion and overall immune health.

See the recipe card for quantities.

How To Make It:

Prepare the Base: Add a generous dollop of coconut yogurt to the bottom of your glass. Drizzle with a bit of Anima Mundi Elderberry Elixir.
Blend the Smoothie: Combine the smoothie ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour and Serve: Gently pour the smoothie over the yogurt and elixir base, letting the layers create a stunning visual effect.
Enjoy: Serve immediately and indulge in this immune-boosting treat!

Top Tips:

Easy recipes like this dark purple berry smoothie or my Strawberry Banana Sea Moss Smoothie come together in no time and are pretty straightforward. They're meant to be quick bursts of superfoods that should be enjoyed immediately. I would first try the recipe as-is because I carefully crafted it with flavor in mind. But here are a few tips, nonetheless.

Suggested Use of Elderberry Exilir: Anima Mundi has suggested uses for the amount of elderberry syrup per dosage and for children versus adults. I would stick to the recommendations and only increase the amount of time you consume this drink if you need it.
Add Some Chill: Serve over ice cubes, especially during warmer seasons.
Make It a Smoothie Bowl: Similar to my Strawberry Kiwi Smoothie Bowl, serve in a bowl and top with extra fruit or granola for added texture and crunch.

Variations And Substitutions:

Nut Butter: Use almond, walnut butter, or peanut butter depending on your taste or dietary preferences.
Nut-Free: Seed Butter from Sunbutter can also work to keep it nut-free.
Coconut Milk: You can substitute with unsweetened almond or soy milk for a different flavor profile.
Sweetener: If you like your smoothie sweeter, feel free to add a touch of maple syrup.

Storage:

If you have leftovers (which is unlikely; it’s that good!), you can store this smoothie in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 24 hours. For a frozen treat, pour the smoothie into ice cube trays or popsicle molds for a quick and easy snack later!

Recipe FAQs:

Can I use other types of fruit in this smoothie?

Absolutely! This recipe is very flexible. Try adding mango, pineapple, or strawberries to mix things up.

Can I substitute the Anima Mundi Elderberry Elixir?

While you can use plain elderberry syrup, the Anima Mundi elixir offers an added benefit with its blend of extra herbs and superfoods. I highly recommend this product, and a little goes a long way. Plus, with my code NATURALVEGAN you can now get 15% off, so definitely try it!

Is this smoothie suitable for kids?

Yes, this smoothie is great for kids! It’s packed with fresh fruit and immune-boosting ingredients, making it a healthy and fun treat. Use sunflower seed butter instead of nut butter for peanut or nut allergies.
