A LITTLE KITCHEN BACKSTORY

Let’s make something lovely.

The deep purple drink in the photograph suggests a berry-heavy blend, but it does not reveal which berries went in. This original version combines three kinds for a lively mix of sweet and tart.

A small amount of yogurt softens the sharpness without hiding the berry flavor. Blend until the fruit is broken down, then enjoy the naturally foamy top.

APRON OPTIONAL. APPETITE ENCOURAGED.

THE LITTLE THINGS THAT MAKE A DIFFERENCE

Before the happy first bite.

01

Blackberries deepen the color, while raspberries add a brighter tang.

02

Berry seeds remain even after blending; strain through a fine sieve if you prefer a smoother drink.

03

Use cold fruit and milk so you do not need ice.

Save some for later

Cover and refrigerate at 40°F (4°C) or colder for up to 24 hours. Stir before drinking; separation is normal.
