Ingredients

  • 1 cup whole milk or non-dairy milk of choice
  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream (or vegan alternative)
  • 2 tablespoons cocoa powder
  • 1/4 cup frozen blackberries
  • 1 teaspoon activated charcoal powder
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, for sweetness)

Instructions

  • In a blender, combine the milk and vanilla ice cream.
  • Add the cocoa powder, frozen blackberries, activated charcoal, and vanilla extract.
  • Blend until smooth and creamy.
  • If desired, add honey or maple syrup for extra sweetness and blend again.
  • Pour into two serving glasses.
  • Top with a sprinkling of cocoa powder or a few fresh blackberries for garnish.

Notes

Activate the machine before adding all the ingredients to ensure the ice cream blends smoothly.
If you prefer a thinner consistency, adjust with a splash of milk.
For a themed presentation, serve in dark-colored glasses with a 'blood' drizzle made from crushed berries mixed with a little water on the rim.
