Blueberry Milkshake | Drink recipe ( using fresh fruit)


Blueberry milkshake with step by step pictures.

Here in  Dubai i see variety of fruits and vegetables in almost all supermarkets/hypermarkets which I found rare in Chennai. The first thought that comes to my mind on seeing these fruits are to make some recipes for my blog and I guess most food bloggers will have the feeling like me. When i got a small box of fresh blueberries I made a milkshake with it and fully enjoyed it.
