Smoothie King Daily Warrior

Smoothie King Daily Warrior bursting with antioxidants to nourish your cells and nut-based protein to promote muscle growth. Learn how to make at home!


Daily Warrior, a copycat Smoothie King Be Well Blend recipe, combines vibrant wild blueberries, fresh spinach, creamy bananas, crunchy almonds, and smooth peanut butter with a base of apple blueberry juice and dates for a nutrient-dense powerhouse that’s both earthy and sweet. This antioxidant-rich vegetable smoothie delivers a thick, satisfying texture with tart berry notes offset by nutty undertones, providing essential potassium and protein to fuel your day or aid recovery after exercise. As an easy homemade healthy drink, it’s ideal for wellness enthusiasts seeking balanced, preventative nutrition in a refreshing blend that tastes indulgent yet supports overall vitality.

I’ve whipped up this Daily Warrior Smoothie King blend more times than I can count, learning that toasting the almonds lightly first brings out a deeper nuttiness that pairs perfectly with the spinach. The blueberries’ natural compounds help fight inflammation and the iron from spinach keeps energy levels steady without any bitterness creeping in, turning it into my secret weapon for powering through into the evening. If the mix feels too thick, I’ve found adding a splash of extra juice does the trick, or experiment with cashew butter for a milder twist that still packs the protein punch.
