I
am not sure that this Raspberry Banana
concoction can be properly classified as a Smoothie or a Shake for this week's
Food on Friday – but I am going to link it in anyway! Author's prerogative.
This
is what went into it:
2
pieces of frozen banana
The
juice of 1 orange
½
tsp of stevia (you could use liquid honey instead)
1
tblsp of brandy (optional obviously)
Handful
of frozen raspberries
A
splash of water – just to get the right consistency
A
quick whizz with a stick blender and it was done – all in under 5 minutes. It was delicious – not too sweet. And even better it had no added milk or
sugar. Fantastic!
Looks good. New kind of smoothie..I wonder if the combination of banana and orange may cause trouble to the tummy?? Let me know plz

This does look tasty.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a refreshing warm weather drink. Right about now I'm thinking in terms of hot cider and cocoa :) . . .
ReplyDeleteBrandy! You won me over! Lol
ReplyDeletewould work as a smoothie for me. the touch of brandy is good.
ReplyDeleteOrange and banana together are really good. I've had that many times, just the two of them together.
mmm, I love smoothies, especially with raspberries.
ReplyDeleteI'm all of sudden very thirsty:)
ReplyDeleteYummmm!!!!! Easy and pretty.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful color. I am reading a raw food book and have been thinking we need to make more smoothies. Some of the raw food looks a bit questionable, but smoothies we can do.
ReplyDeleteWow that's such a bright, happy colour!
ReplyDeleteNear enough to a smoothie for me. Sounds luscious and just the kind of thing I like for breakfast (though maybe without the brandy at 8am).
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking to Sweet New Zealand - it's lovely to have you join in. Would you be good enough to just edit your post to include a link and reference to Sweet New Zealand and the host -
