The Blender: Raspberry Lime Smoothies

Image
Our smoothies were a little bit thicker than those pictured, but it was a great treat for dinner last night with my beloved Christopher Robin! Juice from 2 limes, one 4oz tub of strawberry yogurt, one 4oz tub of peach yogurt, one pint of frozen raspberries, and a little milk to thin it out enough for blending. And then a couple lime slices in each cup to garnish! Yum 😋  https://deliciouslysprinkled.com/raspberry-lime-smoothie/
