Greetings and Salutations! I'm in a great mood!
So on the electric lemonade - it's not my friend's fault. Her recipe called for
spinach (updated 5/29/13)
lemon herbal tea (brewed and left to cool)
mangoes
bananas
blueberries
I, on the other hand, used
a whole mango
one banana
2 cups of blueberries
1 lemon
I know, I know - it was tart and not good, but guess what? I drank all 30 ounces of it anyway. Okay, well, probably about 27 of the 30 ounces of it. It was bad and I just couldn't....
However, using pineapples and bananas I had frozen for making another smoothie was not a bust. Usually, when I make my spinach, and/or kale, banana and pineapple smoothie (add water), it comes out at room temperature and I drink it that way or refrigerate until cold. I usually make enough for several servings and drink a portion of the smoothie immediately at room temp.
With my frozen fruits I got a cold smoothie ready for consumption. I am so excited that I thought about this, since I never added ice to my smoothies (especially now in using distilled or alkaline water). Now, unless I'm going to peel and eat the bananas, I'm going to freeze them as well as the pineapples.
Now I just have to see if the coconut oil will liquefy in the cold climate of the frozen blended ingredients. Smoothies are best served up cold!
As a side - the dherbs.com and dheathstore.com websites have some great recipes that would have added some nice variety to my detox menu; however, I am what? Lazy, so I stayed on a basic eating plan that I got sorta bored consuming. I do plan on trying out some of those recipes in the future.
Peace
