Smoothie Recipes

The temperatures has been fairly warm where I live the last few weeks. There were a couple of days that were in the triple digits, so I went looking for some drink recipes to help keep me cool. Here are two that I particularly like:

Strawberry & Banana Smoothie

1 cup frozen strawberries 

1 cup frozen bananas 

4 ounces of plain yogurt 

1 cup of milk

Combine into a Blender and blend until smooth.

Tart Cherry Juice & Lime (Runner's World featured this drink recipe) 

2 lime cubes (lime juice frozen in ice cube trays)

1 cup tart cherry juice 

1 sprig of mint

This is a fairly simple drink to make. Just add the lime cubes and cherry juice in a tall glass. Garnish with the mint. For best results, be sure to let let the juice cubes melt for a few minutes.
