Sour Cherry Smoothie

You all know what to do when life hands you lemons, but what about when somebody in your household decides to splurge on a 2-gallon bucket of pitted sour cherries from your weekly fruitshare? There are some obvious answers, like cherry compote and cherry pie, and those are in motion. But the less obvious, and most immediate, answer, is this:

Sour Cherry Smoothie
1 cup pitted sour cherries
1/2 cup leftover cherry juice
1/2 cup frozen blueberries
1/2 banana
handful of ice cubes

Put them all in a tall glass, and attack them with your overused immersion blender. Drink immediately, with much lip-smacking.
