Four Seasons - Winter

 

Ah, winter. I hate don't like it for several reasons - frigid temperature, it gets dark early (gotta love summer - still daylight at 9pm), our plants wilt (or die!), driving with fogged up windshields, etc. The only thing I like about it is that people look good during the winter - we get to wear our nice coats and boots and those pretty scarves! But other than that, I would rather have the other 3 seasons.

This drink is my version of Four Seasons - Winter. As always, I used fruits that are abundant during this season. Hope you like it!
 

You gotta love Chiquita Bananas and their quirky one-liners!

What you need: 

1 banana
1 clementine orange
1 pear
1 apple
1 tablespoon honey
2 cups crushed ice
2 tablespoons fruit juice (I used V8)


What to do: 

Slice fruits into bite-sized pieces and put them in your blender. Add honey, juice, and ice. Blend until desired consistency (I like mine a bit runny than chunky).

Pour in glass and serve.


Tips, Tricks and Tweaks: 

1. Add more honey if you like it sweeter (but personally, the apple and banana makes it sweet enough!).
2. Use any kind of fruit you want!
3. Some people like adding milk to their fruit shake.

  1. I therefore conclude that our house needs a blender. The closest I've come to a Four Seasons Drink is a powdered 8 o'clock :D
