Author Notes: If you’ve never tried wild blueberries vs. the cultivated ones, you’re in for a treat! They have a deeper flavor and sweetness. This smoothie has the perfect blend of sweet and spicy. The ginger is a nice pick me up! Read the whole post at http://oatandsesame.com/2016/02/wild-blueberry-chai-smoothie/ —Oat&Sesame

Directions
- This recipe was entered in a recipe contest sponsored by the Wild Blueberry Association of North America and I am eligible to win prizes associated with the contest. I was not compensated for my time.
- Place all ingredients into a blender.
- Give it a whirl until smooth and frothy.
- *For this recipe, I used a premixed soy based vanilla chai latte beverage from Bolthouse Farms. You can use any mix you’d prefer – Tazo has a nice organic chai mix that you can add any milk to create a latte mix.
