Cousins, Pools, and Ice Cream Spills

Hello, dears!

We recently took a trip to our old farm for several events, including attending a funeral, swimming, and going out to eat. I didn’t take pictures of the first, but I did of the other two. 😉 If you like swimming, ice cream, or summer adventures, you might enjoy this post! I’d love to hear about what summer adventures you go on after you finish!

And since that’s apparently all the intro this thing needs, let’s get straight into the post. 😉

Delicious Black Raspberry Smoothies

It’s the season for black raspberries – Yum! We picked black raspberries recently, and I thought a smoothie would be a great thing to use them in.  I tried it, and sure enough, it was delicious!  This smoothie got rave reviews from my family, plus it’s very simple.

Here’s the recipe:

*****************************************************************
Black Raspberry Smoothie

2 cups of black raspberries

2 cups of vanilla ice cream  (approximately)

1 cup of milk

——————————————————————————————————————————–

1. Blend all ingredients together in a blender until smooth.

2. Garnish with extra black raspberries if you like.

3. Enjoy!

Notes:

If you want your smoothie to be a little thicker, add some ice cream to it.  You can also try putting it in the freezer a little bit to firm it up.  If you want it to be more liquid, add some milk.

Try adding a puff of whipped cream to make it look (and taste) even better!
