Celebrate National Ice Cream Day with Grilled Cheese Master Chef Crystal de Luna Bogan

Mountain Valley Culinary Ambassador Chef Crystal de Luna Bogan has perfected the art of the grilled cheese sandwich at her three The Grilled Cheeserie locations around Nashville. Now she is on a mission to make the best milkshakes and floats, often partnering with local brands and organizations for creative monthly specials. No flavors pairings are off limits and each creation is more inventive than the last, so it was no surprise Chef de Luna Bogan came up with a unique way to use Mountain Valley Sparkling Blackberry Pomegranate

In honor of National Ice Cream Day, we are proud to present Chef de Luna Bogan's recipe for a Butterfly Pea Flower Float featuring Mountain Valley Blackberry Pomegranate and a magical twist.
