Strawberry Almond Smoothie

1. Place the ice cubes in a blender, cover and grind until the ice is partially crushed about 15 seconds. Add the American Almond® Marzipan, milk and strawberries. (Quarter the strawberries if they are oversized.)
2. Blend until the mixture is smooth and frothy, about 1 minute. (Generally, when you no longer hear ice rattling in the blender, the mixture is smooth.)
3. Pour into two or three chilled glasses. Garnish with a sprig of mint if desired and serve immediately.

Adult Variation
