Fruit Smoothies

October 15, 2007

You will need 1 banana, 4 strawberries, 1/4 cup mango nectar, 2 tbl spoons coconut milk, 1 mango, 2 tbl spoons honey, yogurt (I used peach), sorbet, and ice. Add a shot each of vodka, tequila, and rum for a great party drink.

Combine the ingredients in a blender, adding the ice last, so you can fill the blender the rest of the way with ice.

Turn the blender on high and mix for about 4 minutes. You want a nice smooth texture without lumps of fruit and ice.

Pour into a nice tall glass, serve, and enjoy!
