If you have weakness of buying king of fruit every time you shop. Then what will you do make something out of it isn’t. I was long planning to bake something with them, however the right time according me not come yet. I don’t know when it comes. I am too lazy nowadays you can see from my posting spree.This month I missed almost all of the cooking challenges such as daring bakers, bread baking day, and bread baking babes, which I love to participate. I also missed some other blog events to and it is really hard to keep up with it. I try to cook for lunch and dinner, but nothing special to blog about it. One lazy day I made this mango milk shake.
You will be wondering what about this recipe? Is it special? It is adapted from a cook book “Gulf coast Kitchens” by Constance Snow. It is a “ batido “( Cuban fruit milk shake) recipe from the book. In Cuba it is called Batido where as in Mexico it is called Licuados and in India it is called milk shake with fruit. My hubby is teasing me that I bring a bunch of books from library and it will be sitting here in our house for the next two weeks without me even taking a look at them, then the day of return comes and I take them back to library without even reading them. In order to show him that I do take a look, I am making mango milk shake recipe from the cook book.
I made mango milk shake with favorite fruit mango and a small banana with teaspoon of sugar. If you want, you can increase amount of sugar. Mango is fibrous fruit so it helps in digestive process. Here goes the easy breezy recipe.
