Author Notes
Black plums are one of my favorite things. This is tangy and refreshing and a lovely shade of deep pink. —checker

Squirt the juice of one lime wedge into the blender and over the plum.

Blend until smooth.

Someone once said, "the wise man knows that he knows nothing at all." Therefore if I spend my days seeking knowledge than I am simply trying to be a better fool. Hopefully I will eat well along the way.
