Blender Elite

Mix me a concoction
with an event and maybe good friends.
If made with shaved ice,
and made exactly right,
the friendship stops the souring trends.

Warm me a soothing beverage
with the ingredients of family.
Just let it sit and cool,
as a caring one would do,
a single sip will set one free.

Blend me the contents
add one part me and two parts, you.
And on my shoulder you should lay,
I'll greet you when it turns, day;
I promise I'll do all I can do.

Puree inside your sweet blender
be it right, or be it wrong.
I know all can relate,
please be kind, ol' chef Fate,
I so enjoy the taste of your song.
