Blackberry Smoothie Tips

Blackberries are similar to raspberries with some of the same nutritional values and health benefits including antioxidants, vitamin C, and fiber. The blackberry can often be confused with the marionberry or black raspberry as the taste is not too much different either. Blackberries are sweet and go well with other sweeteners like whipped cream or condensed milk. Adding them to smoothies with a sweet cream gives the smoothie a very enjoyable taste. When selecting blackberries, check for moldy areas and smushed fruits as they can be bruised easily. Also, watch for plumpness of the small drupelets of the fruit and smell the blackberries for a good aroma which is a good sign of ripeness.
