Rhubarb Smoothie
You’ll love this tangy and sweet rhubarb smoothie recipe that’s packed full of nutrients and flavour. A delicious way to use up your rhubarb plant!
Almost every morning, I have a smoothie for breakfast. There are a few favourite combinations I enjoy most, like mixed berries with spinach and bananas or mango, kale and orange.
On Monday, I was totally out of frozen fruit except for rhubarb, which I’d never thought of using in a smoothie before. I went out on a limb and gave it a whirl, and boy have I been missing out! A few tweaks here and there and I’ve been able to come up with something I look forward to drinking for breakfast, dessert or any time in between!

How to Make a Rhubarb Smoothie
Ingredients
- ½ cup frozen chopped rhubarb
- ¼ cup plain greek yogurt
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk (or milk of choice)
- ¼ teaspoon cinnamon
- 3 tablespoons cooked oatmeal (rolled or steel cut)
- ½ teaspoon ground flax
- 1 tablespoon honey
- few small ice cubes
The full list of ingredient measurements and instructions are in the printable recipe card at the bottom of the post.
Smoothie Directions
Add all ingredients to a blender or Vitamix and combine until smooth. Depending on the tartness of the rhubarb, you may need to adjust the honey. Enjoy!
Why You’ll Love this Rhubarb Smoothie
The oatmeal, Greek yogurt and flax in this rhubarb smoothie recipe will help keep you full until lunch. Cinnamon is also known as a circulation booster, plus rhubarb contains fibre, antioxidants, and is rich in vitamins. It’s both delicious and healthy!
Have a rhubarb plant in your garden? If it’s like my mom’s, you’ll have way more than you’ll be able to use up. Cut the stalks into chunks and pop them into the freezer to use down the road. I highly suggest making this cherry rhubarb crisp too!

Enjoy the sunshine,

I’m not a huge fan of rhubarb, but this looks and sounds delicious for a breakfast smoothie! I bet my husband would even love it, he is a fan of rhubarb.

Try mixing in some strawberries to cut the rhubarb taste. Let me know how your hubby likes it!
Wow, Shauna! This sounds delicious! I’m going to put rhubarb in my smoothie tomorrow! Pinning!
Let me know what you think. I drink smoothies all the time so it was nice to mix it up with something a little different.
Hi Shauna, Thanks for linking up at Project Inspire{d}… I featured your smoothie this week! Thanks, Malia
Wow that looks amazing! I think I have to try making one!
Shauna, this sounds amazing! And I’m with you – I start most days with a smoothie, and I’d never think to add Rhubarb – ever! This is something we’ll have to try. Thanks so much for sharing!!!
This is perfect Shauna. I have a huge rhubarb plant just starting to grow and I always have more rhubarb than I know what to do with. I plan to make this. The recipe looks fabulous! Pinning!
Mmmm I love rhubarb! I have never thought of trying it in smoothie form! Sounds wonderful.
Pinned it, looks so YUMMY!
Maybe instead of plain yogurt, use one with strawberries on the bottom.
Great idea!
