"Dangerously Red" Smoothie

All right, my first venture into non-standard smoothie land, called the "Dangerously Red" smoothie by the Weird Sisters, a strawberry/raspberry one by any other normal human being. It's raspberries and strawberries plus some strawberry yogurt and cranberry juice. It came out just as spoon-requiringly thick as the last smoothie, (which I'm going to guess will be a theme with these girls' recipes), but good--albeit seedy.

Thanks to my trusty Livestrong calculator, I can tell you the calorie count on this one is around 384/serving, which is a little high for what I would like to be a low-cal snack, but I'm starting to discover those may be harder to find than the mythical island of Atlantis.
