Don’t pay mega-bucks for frozen yogurt at the store. It only takes 4 ingredients to turn out a spectacular frozen yogurt that you’ll swear is ice cream. It’s a healthy dessert that feels decadent. Win-win!
Add yogurt, sugar and blueberries to your blender and blend until smooth. If you’re using frozen berries, it may take a little coaxing to get them all blended. If it doesn’t “want” to blend, shut off the blender and move the contents around a little with a wooden spoon or spatula. Remove the spoon, pour in the Grand Marnier, replace the lid and blend again.
If a smooth product is desired, pour and force the yogurt base through a stainless steel, fine mesh strainer. It will take a while, so be prepared! If you like a more rustic yogurt with bits of blueberry and seeds throughout, skip the straining. Either way, you need to refrigerate the base for 2-4 hours prior to freezing.
Pour the yogurt base into your ice cream maker and process according to manufacturer’s instructions. (In my Cuisinart ice cream maker, it took 25 minutes and was ready to serve immediately.) Transfer to a freezer-safe container with a lid. This makes about two quarts.
If you have any yogurt left over, store it tightly packed in the freezer with a piece of plastic wrap laid directly on the surface of the frozen yogurt.

The BEST frozen yogurt I have ever made! I used a combo of blueberries, blackberries, and strawberries. Lasted 2 days. My berries were very sweet, so I only used 1/2 cup sugar. So creamy and delicious. Can’t wait to make it again!

I made this recipe today with strawberries instead of blueberries. It was amazing! Such a great fruity, tangy flavor. I’ll be making this again for sure. Oh, and if you don’t have the greek yogurt, you can do as I did, and just put plain yogurt in some cheese cloth in a sieve over a bowl for a few hours in the fridge. It works really well.
