and Evensong Spa
Where getting away means getting together
Greetings,
It's amazing what a body of water can do to keep a group of friends or a family from drifting apart. The spa or golf course are also great places to grow closer to the ones you care about most.

Happy Travels,
Michelle

1 pint of raspberry sorbet, softened
1 tablespoon finely grated lime zest, plus more for garnish
1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from 2 or 3 limes)

Directions:
1. Put 5 1/2 cups of raspberries, the sorbet, lime zest and lime juice into a blender. Use a spatula to push down the ingredients. Pulse a few times, then puree until very smooth. Add ice cream and puree, stopping and stirring with spatula as needed. Stir in 1 cup of raspberries.
2. Pour mixture into glasses. Garnish with remaining 1/2 cup raspberries and lime zest.
