This fruity milkshake is a delicious, heart-healthy treat your teeny tiny sous chef can help make as a nutritious snack or dessert! You can use any frozen fruit you like but we like to use strawberries, cherries or raspberries for a beautiful pink color in honor of Valentine’s Day. Make a vegan version using unsweetened almond milk or unsweetened soy milk.
