Citrus Berry Smoothie

It has been very hot here in Portland. The kids and I got home from a long walk and we were all so hot and dehydrated we decided to make smoothies to cool us down and quench our thirst. The smoothies were very quick and easy to make. I filled them with banana, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, yogurt, honey, orange juice, and ice. They were so flavorful and delicious - the kids drank them up in a flash and loved every last sip.
