This was really exceptional, and I found the blackberries to be an unusual combination with the tropical flavors. I used fresh blackberries and fresh pineapple. The color was also really pretty. Thanks for posting this. Made for Every Day is a Holiday Tag Game.

Wonderful flavor!!! The pineapple chunk just made this cooler!! I made one-half the recipe since I only wanted 2 servings. DH and I enjoyed it immensely and will have this beverage again in the future. Thanks for posting this one. Prepared as a participant in the Sept 2009 Aus/NZ Swap #32 Event.
