Orange Creamsicle
It’s like a creamsicle for adults, only as a drink. These are so easy to make – just toss it all into your blender and blend until smooth. These also make a great Saturday brunch drink, or you can even freeze them and enjoy as a popsicle!
2 oranges (peeled)
handful of ice
1 cup plain kefir (or yogurt)
1 tablespoon sweetener (sugar, honey, or agave syrup)
2 ounces of white rum
Orange Banana Yogurt Smoothie
This is a great drink to whip up for a weekend brunch. We usually use kefir instead of yogurt, but whatever you have on hand will work. Throw everything into your blender and blend until smooth.
Makes 2 servings
2 oranges (peeled)
1 banana
handful of ice
1 cup of plain yogurt or kefir
2 ounces of white rum
Coffee Smoothie
Save a little of your leftover coffee in the morning and then store in the fridge until you are ready to make this yummy drink. The original recipe called for Amaretto. I didn’t have any in the house, so I just threw a banana in instead, and let me tell you: that was the best call. Not only did it make me feel like I was adding some healthy goodness to my drink, but the banana and the coffee were a great combination. I will be making this again soon!
1 small banana
2 tablespoons of whipping cream
2 ounces cold black coffee or a shot of espresso
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 cup of ice
2 ounces of white rum
grated bittersweet chocolate
Throw everything, but the chocolate, in the blender with about a cup of ice and blend until smooth. Pour into a tall glass and garnish with grated chocolate.
