Ingredients

Scale

Purple Layer:

  • 1 frozen banana, chopped

  • 3/4 cup frozen blueberries or blackberries

  • 23 tablespoons milk of choice

Blue Layer:

  • 2 frozen bananas, chopped

  • 1 teaspoon blue majik powder

  • 23 tablespoons milk of choice

Green Layer:

  • 1 frozen banana, chopped

  • 1 handful fresh baby spinach

  • 1/2 teaspoon matcha green tea powder

  • 23 tablespoons milk of choice

Yellow Layer:

  • 1 frozen banana, chopped

  • 3/4 cup frozen mango

  • 1 teaspoon dried turmeric

  • 23 tablespoons milk of choice

Pink Layer:

  • 1 frozen banana, chopped

  • 1/2 cup frozen pink dragon fruit (about 2 packs)

  • 23 tablespoons milk of choice

Red Layer:

  • 1 frozen banana, chopped

  • 1/4 cup frozen raspberries

  • 1/2 cup frozen strawberries

  • 23 tablespoons milk of choice

Instructions

  1. Prepare Each Layer: Starting with the purple layer, combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender. Pulse until thick and creamy like soft serve. Pause occasionally and use a spatula to push down ingredients.
  2. Layering: Pour the purple nice cream into the bottom of tall glasses. Freeze for 10–15 minutes to set before adding the next layer.
  3. Repeat: Continue with blue, green, yellow, pink, and red layers, freezing briefly between each to prevent colors from blending.
  4. Final Freeze: Once all layers are assembled, freeze the glasses for 1–2 hours until firm and spoonable.
  5. Serve: Scoop and enjoy immediately.

Notes

  • Freezing Tip: Briefly freezing between layers prevents color bleeding and keeps each layer distinct.

  • Adjust Sweetness: Use naturally sweet fruits like ripe bananas or mango. Add a drizzle of maple syrup if desired.

  • Optional Boosts: Add chia seeds, hemp seeds, or a sprinkle of cacao nibs between layers for extra nutrition and texture.

  • Serving: This is best served immediately after final freezing for the soft serve texture.
