You may find it hard to believe that cheesecake is thought to have originated in ancient Greece. The first recorded mention of it is as a treat being served to athletes during the first Olympic games, held in 776 B.C. What’s even more amazing is the passion we continue to have for this sensually creamy delight. By combining a rich cheesecake ice cream with a variety of berries, this smoothie will satisfy any craving you may have for something that is sinfully rich.
2/3 to 3/4 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup partially frozen blueberries
1/2 cup partially frozen blackberries
1/2 cup partially frozen diced strawberries
1/2 cup blueberry or strawberry cheesecake ice cream

Place all the ingredients in a blender and mix by using the on/off pulse function until the ingredients are mostly blended. Continue mixing, gradually increasing the speed, until the mixture is smooth. Pour the smoothie into a glass and garnish with Berries on a Skewer (see Great Garnishes) or top with graham cracker crumbs, if desired.
