If your kids are anything like mine, they love those little drinkable yogurts that show up in the dairy aisle. The problem? Most of the store-bought versions are packed with dyes, artificial flavors, and way too much sugar. Instead of sending those to school, I’ve started making my own—and it’s not only healthier, it’s more cost-effective too.
What You’ll Need
- 1 container (32 ounces) organic plain yogurt
- 1 cup frozen mixed berries
- 1 cup milk
- Maple syrup to taste
- Reusable pouches

How to Make It
- Toss the yogurt, frozen berries, milk, and a drizzle of maple syrup into your blender.
- Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Taste and adjust sweetness if needed
- Pour into reusable pouches (I got mine on Amazon)
That’s it—just four ingredients and less than five minutes!
Why It’s Better Than Store-Bought
- Protein & Calcium: Yogurt is naturally rich in protein and calcium, which help fuel kids through their school day.
- No Dyes or Fillers: Unlike many pre-made drinkable yogurts, this version is clean and wholesome.
- Lower Sugar: You control the sweetness, so there’s no sugar overload.
- Cost Effective: A single batch makes several servings, and those reusable pouches pay for themselves in no time.
School-Friendly Snack
These homemade yogurt drinks are perfect for school lunches, after-school sports, or just a quick breakfast on busy mornings. Plus, kids love having something they can sip on that feels like a treat—but you can feel good knowing it’s full of nutrients their growing bodies need.
