i will give u some of my own recepies of some fruity cocktails

Tips to Get You Started

Smoothies are the healthiest and most satisfying fruit drink because they include whole fruit rather than just the juice. They're also the simplest.

Get Creative

Select a mix of two or three chilled or frozen fruits for taste, color, and nutrients. Remove stems, large seeds, pits, or tough skins. Strawberries are a favorite. Blueberries provide antioxidants and rich color. Peaches, most berries, melons, grapes, mangos, and cherries all blend well with other fruits. Pomegranates,  and kiwifruit offer unique health benefits, but they're trickier to balance with other ingredients.,The banana provides sweetness and puts the "smooth" in smoothie. Buy bananas fresh in quantity, quarter, place in a freezer bag, add a spoonful of sugar, shake, and store in freezer for up to three weeks. Remove pieces as needed.
Next, choose a liquid, one-fourth to one-third cup. Try milk or soy milk for a shake-like treat. Orange, apple, or grapefruit juice make a tangier smoothie. Pineapple or watermelon juice sweeten the recipe

the secret is to mix , fix and blend ..... feel the taste , the smell and enjoy

  • Blend the strawberries, milk, pineapple juice, vanilla yogurt, sugar, ice, and wheat germ in a blender until smooth. You may need to scrape down the sides of the blender a couple of times and filter . Pour into glasses and serve immediately.    
    you can add 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream in the blender for the taste




    3- Fruit and Yoghurt smoothie
  • 1/2 cup of your child's favorite fruit, such as peaches, bananas, pineapples, strawberries, mangos, etc.
  • 3/4 cup of yogurt
  • 1 cup milk

  •  Peel the fruit, if appropriate, and cut them up into small pieces.
    Put all of the ingredients into a blender and puree them together until smooth.
    Pour into a chilled glass and serve with a straw.
    Keep in mind that you may have to add ice or use frozen fruit if you really want to serve it cold. Also, a banana may be needed to get the smoothie to the right consistency (thick and creamy).

    Healthy Smoothie Recipe Ideas

    Although a good source of fruit, plus calcium and other vitamins and minerals, this high in fat and sugar. For a healthy smoothie, you can:
    • use nonfat yogurt
    • use skim milk
    • use an artificial sweetener
    • keep the skin on when using fruits like apples and pears to get extra fiber into your smoothie

    4- Melon Lime smoothie









    Ingredients
    • 4 1/2 cups cubed honeydew melon
    • 1 1/2 cups lime sherbet
    • 2 tablespoons lime juice
    • 4 fresh strawberries (optional)

               

    1. Place  melon in a single layer on a baking sheet. Cover and freeze until firm, about 30 minutes.
    2. Transfer frozen melon to a food processor with the sherbet and lime juice. Puree until smooth. Pour mixture evenly into 4 glasses, and garnish each glass with a strawberry. Serve immediately.
