I'm up at
the crack of dawn having realised that the dish I had planned for you today is
not ready. It's now been marinating for
2 days instead of one which probably isn't such a bad thing!
So I looked
back into my archives for something just a little bit Christmassy to share and
came up with this Mango Cocktail.
If this doesn't feel Christmassy to you, just remember
that where I live Christmas falls in high summer so tropical fruit is appropriate.
This lovely smooth cocktail is simple to make:
Instead of putting ice in it I just refrigerated all the ingredients overnight so they were nice and cool
For 4 serves just blend together:
180ml white rum (or less if you prefer less of a kick)
1 teaspoon or a bit more of lemon juice
425g can of mango pieces in juice
250ml of milk
2 tablespoons of caster sugar – I used ½ teaspoon of stevia powder instead
Pour into your festive glasses and enjoy.
