Warning: This drink is rather sugary. Not that that’s a bad thing…
A little while ago I got some blue raspberry syrup, like the kind of stuff you would use to make snow cones and the like. I have used it in a few different drinks. Goes great with lemonade (which means I will soon try to make a Blue Raspberry Frozen Lemonade) and some crystal lite type mixes. But I wanted a blue raspberry smoothie. One that would be reminiscent of the ocean. I honestly came up with the name a long time before the actual recipe. When I made it, I had to do a lot of tasting, sipping, add extra stuff and tweak it until I felt that it truly fit the name. Tell me if you have any suggestions on how to make it better. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy!
