Raspberry cooler



Since the sun has got his hat on, hip hip hooray this week, I've been cooling down with this simple raspberry cooler I like to make. 


It's so simple, if you like the sharpness of raspberries like I do, here's what you do:




Just add these two simple ingredients together, in fact you can use any frozen fruit you like. I also love mango and pineapple. I try to use peeled chunks of fresh fruit that I have frozen when the fruit is cheaper, on special deals or like these raspberries that I picked last summer and froze over the winter.




 I used my hand blender as it's a lot easier to clean.




Yummmy, it's sooooo refreshing {and sharp} and healthy too xox 


I'm linking up (oops a little late) with Lakota's Ta-dah Tuesday, do go and take a look at her great chalkboard placemats, such a fab idea.


Right I'm off to make me another of these yummies 
See you all soon

  1. Yes this sounds perfect right about now - the boys were just asking whether they could have raspberries yet (so expensive in the supermarket. Good idea to freeze when on special offer. Thanks for linking up xx

  12. Dear, sweet Penelope,

    I've been trying to email you over the past couple of days but, and I can't understand why, I'm having trouble sending you my mail, which includes my 'How Lucky Am I To Have Won Your Giveaway' postal address. Would you mind sending me a quicky email to sbmillefeuilles@live.fr and when I get back from the UK on Sunday night I will try again.

    I'm so sorry for the delay. I am simply over the moon at having won.

    Stephanie

  13. Just my kind of treat, it looks scrumptious!

    I could eat raspberries all day, and often combine them with my favourite goats yoghurt ... never thought to freeze them first though!
