I have been making shakes and smoothies at home. I have also wanted to try to make a "hard" smoothies (with vodka for example).

Anyone has any new recipe of food or drinks lately?

Smoothies at home... hmm I just keep it simple, apple and bannana for example. But the sugar hit is real high, even if it is natural sugars..

Wouldn't a Vodka smoothie be a cocktail?

Yes, it would be a cocktail, but a homemade one

Oh no, no banana or apple. Try cucumber, summer berries (strawberries, raspberries and blueberries) and coconut water. You can replace berries with mango and/ or pineapple. Lower sugar

Want to learn about veggie shakes?

Yes. Though, I'm not fond of cucumber unless it's covered in Gochujang.

Edit: That wasnt meant as a double entendre.

Babylon 5's cocktail, the Jovian Sunspot, there are just so many variations; with the urban dictionary - I have yet to mix this drink right

Many years back when I use to consume juices and smoothies regularly, I used a very wicked berry mix made up of bilberries, blackcurrants and wild blueberries, and for a time I felt awesome. Unfortunately it went off the market and the awesome went too, and maybe life wasn't very stressful then.

I'm a huge berry fan but berries don't come cheap and wild fresh berries are hard to get...

Jovian sunspot eh? Is that a Centauri drink? EVE online has a race called the Jovians, you see...

I used to drink smoothies a lot more frequently. Despite claims of the health benefits I often feel like a mini episode of diabetes is occuring when drinking one, so I prefer to keep my sugar intake to a minimum - All natural or not.

@ Xelions - Ah, "futuristic" cocktail. I should give it a go.

@ Hunty - Do you like zucchini? I prefer zucchini to cucumber in certain dishes, but I think cucumbers make very nice smoothies. What did you mean by mini episode of diabetes? Do you get "sugar rush" from sugar? I get very hyper if I have too much sugar and/ or caffeine.

I usually get palpitations from too much sugar or caffeine. Once I had palps for 3-4 weeks at a time due to something I ate. I also get overly tired after large meals, hence the preference for smaller portions (little and often as they say).

I believe it's human, Ivanova has been credited with co-creating it - http://babylon5.wikia.com/wiki/List_of_Food_and_Drinks

..and I think you might remember Brivari. Now I feel like inviting some really good friends over I haven't seen in years for a special drink goes to check friends list, nope don't exist actually maybe one.

Wild Fragaria you should try Cachaça with crushed lime and sugar... but you must crush the lime and sugar in a mortar and pestle. First time I tried that it was amazing

I guess I'm more of a beer man myself. I used to like harder liquor, but I find they often give me heartburn

Btw did you send that box off? I'm back home you see..

I don't mind 'good' beer but I usually don't go beyond 1 drink of anything these days

Sent you a pm about the box
