Summer time brings great joy to my taste buds. I love fruit, and I absolutely adore Raspberries. I wish I could tell you that I have a gigantic lavish bush of fresh raspberries to pick in my back yard by my huge garden area – but I don’t. My husband won’t let me put one in back there, because it’s too close to the neighbors yard and raspberry bushes tend to get a little out of ‘line’.
So I do the next best thing: Organic Raspberries at Costco! A giant container of raspberries at Costco is under $5 and we eat through about 3 containers a week during the summer.
I personally love to mix my raspberries with my other love: Ice Cream.
Just plain-‘ol New York Vanilla Ice Cream. Straight mixed with raspberries. I break them up with my spoon. Something about the sugar in the ice cream that mixes so beautifully with the raspberries – and just makes my day.
Sometimes I like to eat this for breakfast, and when my husband looks at me weird, I just tell him that the Ice Cream has protein and the raspberries are fresh, organic fruit! *nah nah nah nah nah nah!*
Yum!
What are some of your favorite mix-in’s to Ice Cream?

You nailed it! Raspberries and ice cream, the perfect combination! Raspberries and yogurt, another perfect combination!
Karen Glatt says
I love Raspberries in my milkshakes and so many other items. I like to add Cookies to my ice cream and I like to make Strawberry Shakes in the summer!
Sarah C. says
Ice cream for breakfast is an idea that I can support!
Robin Wilson says
I just love ice cream any time of the year! But during the summer I do find it best with the fresh fruit that is in season. The raspberry shake you have here looks wonderful. But I love to mix peanut butter and chocolate and sometimes bananas!

Have had all kinds of shakes but not a raspberry shake. Got to try this one!

I love all kinds of shakes and different toppings on ice cream. Ice cream is one of my favorite desserts. I have not tried raspberries with ice cream but it looks delicious. I say it would make a great breakfast 🙂
Robin Wilson says
That looks delicious! I’m thinking that it could be made even thicker and served in small parfait glasses as a dessert. Maybe with some crushed graham crackers on the bottom of the glass.

I love that you used fresh raspberries! This is a awesome treat to cool down with or just to enjoy if you have a bit of a sweet tooth. Looks so good!
Beth R says
This looks so yummy! I can’t wait for summer!

This sounds so great and delicious for summer time! For the summer we mix in an espresso shot with chocolate ice cream, so good!
James Robert says
I have done this but mix it up with the spoon adding strawberries and a touch of milk. Good milk shake!
