Excellent drink- I made up 3 batches and they disappeared very quickly - I only used 10 oz of berries for each batch - I mixed strawberry & blackberry with strawberry yogurt.. Followed the smoothie with warm muffins & Coffee and everyone was content Thanks Dorothy

This was good, but for some reason I had a hard time getting the texture just right. I followed the directions exactly and even added more milk to help it blend but it wouldn't quite become like a smoothie, more like a sorbet/ice cream texture. It did taste pretty good, though ~ I used berries & cream yoplait yogurt. I'll play around with it more, maybe add more milk & yogurt and less fruit next time. Thanks for sharing it.

Wow! This is the best smoothie I've ever had! I used frozen blueberries and cherries and raspberry yogurt. I think it is the cherries that make it so unique. The kids went nuts over it and "fought" about who got the last little bit. :) Thanks for posting this winner, Derf!
