Sweetness in one Berry

              What’s one of your favorite fruits? Bananas, kiwi, apples, watermelon, pears, oranges, to pineapple, and hundreds more; there are so many different kinds of fruits to choose from ranging from the most common to the most rare. But one of the most common ones that everybody loves are the strawberries. That juicy, filled with seeds, fruit is one of the most loved fruits in America!

               Strawberries are such a delicious food that so many eat on a daily basis. There’s no wrong season when it comes to eating strawberries. They can be eaten at anytime and anywhere. Usually you see strawberries at holiday parties and such because they are just so tasty and everybody loves them. Even without a holiday or party, my mom will wash and cut up some strawberries to put out on the table just cause.

               One thing I love about strawberries is how they go great with any meal. One of the most common meals that they take part in are pancakes. A stack of pancakes with whipped cream drizzled with chocolate syrup topped with strawberries is such a great celebration to have for a breakfast. Another nutrition breakfast that you could have that includes strawberries is either a shake or a smoothie. Just add some strawberries, milk, and ice into a blended. Poof! You have yourself a delicious strawberry smoothie that you can take on the go. Or, you could blend some other frozen fruit within in to make yourself an even fruitier smoothie. YUM!!

               Strawberries don’t just mix well with food. They also mix well with drinks as well. At restaurants you see drinks on the menu that include the title of strawberries in it like Strawberry Lemonade, or Strawberry Margarita or Bloody Mary. For the lemonade, the strawberry takes some of the sourness out of lemon juice and gives it more of the sweetness.

               Strawberries set the mood for everything! Giving it a little extra sweetness never hurts!
