RASPBERRY, LEMON & MINT FRAPPE

Sometimes the best things in life are really the simplest. Take this raspberry, lemon & mint frappe for example. I was cooking yesterday afternoon and found myself not quite hungry, but peckish. This humble frappe was created and satisfied not only my appetite but my sweet cravings as well. All you need is a blender, some fruit and a just a hint of resourcefulness and 

ingenuity.

INGREDIENTS

• 1 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen; if frozen lightly thawed)
• 1 cup ice
• 1 cup apple juice (low sugar apple juice is best; I used Charlie's apple & water)
• 1/2 cup water 
• the juice of 1/2 a large lemon
• 2 tablespoons fresh mint, roughly shredded. 

PREPARATION

1. Combine all the ingredients in a blender and blend until the consistency is of a thick juice. Serve cold, with mint on top, if desired.
