Everyone loves smoothies at our house. Along with being an appropriate snack morning, noon, or night, they are an exciting way to introduce new ingredients to your child. I love opening the fridge and selecting fruit at its prime along with juices, yogurt, and lots of ice. I enlisted my own expert smoothie maker (my 7-year-old daughter) to help dream up some tasty flavor combinations, which resulted in smoothies that were beyond good. We had so much fun selecting all the ingredients for creating the unique blends.

I then invited my smoothie aficionado into the kitchen for some adventurous blending, culminating with a final taste test to declare a big winner.

From a sprinkling of kale here to a touch of almond there, you might be surprised with which one won!

Good-Start Smoothie

Blended with applesauce, Apple Juicy Juice, raisins, peanut butter, and vanilla yogurt, this smoothie is especially good in the morning. It's smooth and light, and it goes down easy. Although it was yummy, we both placed this one in fifth place.

Creamy Tangerine Dream

Creamy Tangerine Dream

This creamy smoothie comes together thanks to carob, banana, tangerine, fruit punch juice, and vanilla yogurt with results that taste just like a milkshake — but it's a smoothie! Although similar in flavor to a dessert, it wasn't the overall winner. We placed this one in fourth.

You'll never believe this green smoothie is filled with ingredients like kiwi, kale, almonds, cucumber, yogurt, and apple juice, all blended together into a green drink. Kids love things that are interesting colors, and this one came in second on our list.

Raspberry Bomb

This vibrant smoothie is packed with red ingredients including raspberries, strawberries, shaved beets, and fruit punch juice. It might not sound like a combo that works, but there was no question that it was our favorite smoothie out of all five!
