I love these ice creams more than anything. They’re so tasty, purple and good for you! The ice creams are a vivid lilac colour and the sorbets are a rich violet. Normally I’m an ice cream fan but in this case the sorbet wins my vote.

Anytime I spot their caravan I make a beeline for it. Blue River Orchard do THE BEST blueberry icecreams, sorbets and smoothies. Everything is bright purple with tasty berries. It’s delicious, reasonably priced and healthy too. Just think of all those anti-oxidants!
