Equipment

  • 1 Blender
  • 2 Tall glasses
  • 1 Knife

Ingredients
  

Bottom Layer:

  • 1 cup of vanilla yogurt you can also use frozen yogurt and a bit of milk for this layer as well
  • 2 frozen bananas

Top Layer:

  • 1/2 cup of frozen strawberries
  • ½ cup of frozen cherries you can sub for raspberries, or just go all strawberries as well
  • 1 cup of milk

Garnish:

  • 1 strawberry

Instructions
 

  • In a blender, add the vanilla yogurt with the bananas and blend until you achieve a smooth consistency.
  • In a separate blender, combine the frozen strawberries and cherries with the milk and blend until you get a thick berry puree.
  • Fill a tall glass, I used a big Martini glass, with the banana mixture at the bottom and top it with the berry mixture.
  • Top with a strawberry heart. This can be made by slicing the strawberry and cutting a small V out of the top.

Notes

CREATIVE LAYERED DRINK VARIATIONS
  1. While the classic vanilla berry swirl layered drink is a crowd-pleaser, there are several creative variations that you can explore to customize your beverage: Substitute the vanilla yogurt with frozen yogurt and a bit of milk or coconut or almond milk ice cream for a dairy-free option.
  2. Experiment with different types of berries or add a tropical twist with mango or pineapple.
  3. Enhance the flavour by adding a dash of honey or maple syrup for sweetness.
  4. Top off the drink with a dollop of whipped cream and garnish with fresh mint leaves. For an adult version, incorporate a splash of flavoured vodka or rum to elevate the drink.
