Blue Paradise Smoothie

Every April I get a call from my Aunt Wilma asking if I would like some wild blueberries.  I can’t get there quick enough to load up on these sweet luscious berries.  By the time I arrive at her house she already has them picked and washed. 

There’s just something extra special about these wild blueberries. I’m not sure if it’s because they taste better than anything I’ve ever bought at the grocery store or if it’s because Aunt Wilma always thinks of me when it’s blueberry season.  Maybe it’s a little of both. Regardless, I cherish my Aunt and her unlimited generosity and kindness.  So, this smoothie was inspired by my beautiful Aunt Wilma.
