Light yet satisfying, this smoothie delivers that fruity sweetness you crave — without ever knocking you out of ketosis.

About This Recipe

Smoothies are often seen as sugar bombs on a low-carb diet, but with the right ingredients, you can enjoy a creamy, fruity drink without all the carbs. This Keto Raspberry Smoothie is the perfect example—a refreshing, low-carb option that satisfies your cravings for something sweet and fruity while keeping you in ketosis.

Raspberries are one of the best fruits for keto because they’re naturally lower in carbs compared to many other berries. They’re also high in fiber, which means fewer net carbs, and loaded with antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals. Combined with unsweetened almond milk, heavy cream (or coconut cream for dairy-free), and a keto-friendly sweetener, this smoothie is both delicious and nutrient-dense.

One of the best things about this smoothie is how customizable it is. You can add protein powder to make it a post-workout shake, chia seeds for extra fiber and thickness, or MCT oil for a quick energy boost. It’s also easy to make vegan or dairy-free by swapping cream for coconut cream and adding plant-based protein powder.

The flavor of raspberries shines through beautifully in this smoothie—slightly tart, slightly sweet, and perfectly balanced with creamy fats. The texture is thick and smooth, making it feel like a decadent treat rather than a diet-friendly drink. It’s great as a quick breakfast, a midday snack, or even a dessert replacement when you want something light yet satisfying.

Nutritionally, this keto smoothie is well-balanced with healthy fats, fiber, and just the right amount of protein, depending on your add-ins. Each serving is low in net carbs, making it a safe and refreshing choice for anyone on a keto or low-carb diet.

Whether you’re new to keto smoothies or looking for a fruity recipe to add to your rotation, this Keto Raspberry Smoothie is easy, versatile, and absolutely delicious.
