- Use frozen blueberries.
- Not only do they keep the drink cold and refreshing without watering it down like ice would, but also…
- Frozen blueberries are frozen at the source, so their natural nutrients and antioxidants are locked in, often retaining more than fresh berries that have been sitting for a while.
Method:
- In the order listed, add the ingredients to a high-speed blender and blitz until smooth and creamy
- Pour into serving glasses and enjoy immediately.
