Patriotic Strawberry Blueberry Cream Smoothies

These Patriotic Strawberry Blueberry Cream Smoothies were SO good, and were so much fun to make. It was actually my daughter’s idea when we made our punch the other day. Be sure to check that out at the end of this post to see her first creation (the original) we call Tie Dye Smoothies. It was a great first attempt, but these were the ones we decided to feature. {you can do them any way you want}.

We had these the other day when it was super hot {108 degrees}, they were perfect – nice and cool and delicious! We are going to make them again tomorrow for the 4th of July and I am sure a few more times this summer and definitely for other holidays, perhaps changing up the fruit to match the season. They are relatively easy to make to be honest, but a little time consuming just because they need to spend some time in the freezer in between layers. No big deal though. Spend your time making other treats and goodies.
