Blackberry Rock -for Sugar High Friday # 21
I have lived through a number of reasonably and irrationally hot summers, however enjoying a cup of hot coffee or tea was never postponed due to an accidental rise in mercury. At the same time my appreciation for frozen desserts and icy drinks has gradually gone up in the last few years. I am always game for a granita, not to mention a coffee granita ! Last weekend was unusually hot and humid, and our fridge was well stocked up with freshly picked blackberries. Making the best out of both situations we made this semi frozen blackberry rock to send in to the 21st SHF event hosted by talented and witty "The Delicious Life" . You guessed right, the theme this time is ICE ICE BABY!!
This is a berry rich dessert, tastes best when made with blackberries, but any other type will do just fine.
Blackberries coarsely crushed 1 cup
Yogurt ½ cup
Sugar 1 tbsp (or to your requirement)
Ginger juice ¼ tsp
Milk 1 tbsp
Mix everything together. Freeze for 2-3 hours or till the mixture is slushy.

Thanks a bunch friends.
Neelu
Thank you Neelu, I am really touched by your comment. I really don’t have much idea about fine food photography. Only special thing about this is that I try to take these pics in sunlight, at least most of it. I can’t really do many adjustments with the lens or aperture or anything else, as my camera( a point and shoot digi) would not permit it. I will be glad to help with what I know Neelu..
