Though it was a cold day in the Bay, I still had the urge to whip up this glass of yummy goodness! Here's what I used for 1 serving ---
3/4 cup Almond milk
1.5-1.75 cups frozen fruit (I had already chopped and froze 4 large strawberries, 1/2 cup blueberries & half a banana ahead of time)
1 tsp Cocoa powder
1 tsp Honey (add more if you wish) *optional: top with chocolate whipped cream and sprinkles :)
Blend it like Beckham yo!!... set to chop for several seconds till fruit is macerated, then blend for a smooth consistency. Pour in your favorite glass and enjoy!
I would have never thought of having both banana and avocado together in a smoothie :) ... and this one proves to be a delightful option to my usual blended drinks or shakes. This is so creamy and delicious!

Half banana, half

almond milk, crushed ice, honey or any natural sweetener to your liking.
BLEND AWAY! Cheers!!
Spring is here and don't we all love us some pearl shakes or smoothies? I always go to our local Vietnamese Sandwich shop that serves up some really good pearl drinks, Lee's Sandwiches. My fave is Taro! One day while getting some groceries at Seafood City (Filipino/Asian grocer), I was going down the aisle that had all the jarred sweets, beans, Nata preserves and ingredients for Halohalo and I realized that I could make a spin-off of Halohalo that is pretty much similar to the ever popular pearl drinks but use our very own Filipino ingredients!
