Instructions

Make the Red Layer:
Blend strawberries, raspberries, and almond milk until smooth. Pour into a tall glass and freeze for 5 minutes to help set the layer.
Prepare the Yellow Layer:
Rinse the blender. Add mango and orange juice. Blend until creamy. Slowly pour over the red layer using the back of a spoon. Freeze again for 5 minutes.
Blend the Green Layer:
Add spinach, banana, and almond milk to the blender. Blend until smooth. Pour gently over the yellow layer using the spoon trick. Chill again briefly.
Finish with the Purple Layer:
Blend blueberries with yogurt until creamy. Add as the final top layer.
Top and Serve:
Garnish with banana slices, mango pieces, chia seeds, or nut butter. Insert a straw and enjoy immediately.

Notes

Use frozen fruit for thicker, creamier layers and cleaner stripes.
Chill each layer in the freezer for 5–10 minutes to keep them distinct.
For dairy-free: use a plant-based yogurt and almond milk alternative.
You can make this in a mason jar for a grab-and-go breakfast.
Great for toddler smoothies and picky eaters thanks to the naturally sweet taste.
