I love blackberry season at Eckert’s! They are by far my favorite fruit to pick…and eat! I’m always looking for new recipes to try with our bounty, and this time, the children really wanted me to make smoothies. I had fun putting this recipe together…I think the nutmeg makes it extra special. The following recipe makes about 3-4 servings, so I had to double it for our family. You could also easily halve it if you only want to serve two!

• 2 cups fresh blackberries (frozen would work, too)
• 16 oz. vanilla yogurt
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 4 Tbsp. sugar (more or less depending on how tart your berries are)
• 1/4 tsp. nutmeg

Combine all ingredients in blender and blend until smooth, scraping down sides as necessary. Serve immediately.
