This smoothie is similar to a liquid type of cheesecake. It's really scrumptious! It will leave you feeling like you just enjoyed a decadent piece of cheesecake!
Blackberry gives that exceptional purple-ish shading that is super rare in nature and ordinarily found in artificial food colour. This is because blackberries are a good source of antioxidant pigments called anthocyanins.
Research shows that anthocyanins may help protect against liver harm, reduce blood pressure, further improve vision, decrease aggravation, boost immunity because of their antimicrobial capacities, and suppress human cancer cells.
Anthocyanins have also been known to prevent diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and neurological disorders.
Various studies show that certain plant pigments are better absorbed well when you eat them with dietary fat, like the cream cheese, heavy cream, and almond milk. This makes sure that your body will be absorbing as much nutrition as possible from this smoothie.
The best way to enjoy this drink is to keep the glasses in the freezer before having it.
