I decided to combine red grapes and plums here because of how well plums and wine go together in desserts. (I wasn’t about to attempt a red wine smoothie, but I hope this recipe inspires some daring mixologists.)

Used Original Almond Milk Extra Creamy, 3 small ripe Italian plums and 2 tsp of rose water. Turned out great!

I liked this with cream instead of almond milk. I also skipped the rose geranium syrup. Simpler taste. Very nice.
