Blackberry and vanilla smoothie recipe
Goodness! This blend’s fantastic flavor combines the tastes of homey blackberry pie and classic ice cream. There is, however, one downside to using blackberries in smoothies: they leave behind many of their chewy seeds, which somehow manage to avoid the blades of even the most top-notch blenders. If you’re texture-sensitive, you can blend together the blackberries, apple juice, and water first, then strain out the seeds through a sieve before finishing the recipe.
