Spring

Spring, isn't it wonderful. It's basically saying " hey I'm your summer advent calendar" you get the wonderful treat of sun! Some of you from Dubai, Egypt and Australia must be thinking, "what"! But the thing is I come from England where every morning you are woken up by big blankets of cold, the mornings where you have to quickly put on those slippers before your feet turn into ice! England where the sky is grey. We don't get swimming pools or beaches, just ginormous floods! And now finally something new, the time when the flowers bloom, when the birds tweet and when the sky is blue! It's so exciting I had to just quickly blog about it. I've already walked the dog, cycled had a barbecue and been to the park and it's only the second day of sun. There so much more to write about but maybe I'll leave it for another day and another blog. Happy Spring!

Mango and Passion Fruit juice recipe

Mango and Passion fruit juice 
I have been absolutely loving the Starbucks mango and passion fruit juice blend. I just wish the price was a bit lower. But now theres no need! I have discovered the secret recipe for this delicious juice!

Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 Mango (peeled and chopped)
  • 2 passion fruits ( peeled and seeds scooped out)
  • 2 tablespoons of honey
  • 3 teaspoons of normal sugar
  • 1/8 cup of coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup of ice

First get your fruit blender or if you don't own one just a normal blender. Peel your mango and chop it in to cubes.  Place the 1 and a half peeled and cubed mango into the blender with a 1/4 cup of water. Blend these together in the highest setting until the mango is smooth and pure. Then add a 1/4 cup of ice into the blender and place on the highest setting. Add the coconut when the ice is fully granulated and smooth. Peel the passion fruits and empty the seeds and juice into the blender, add this into the blender. Once again blend on the highest setting till it looks like the image above. Add in the rest of the ice and blend until the mixture is smooth. Then add all the honey and blend! After the honey has been blended add the normal sugar. Blend the normal sugar until the mixture is pure and smooth like the image above. taste the mixture to see if it needs any thing else. Pour into glasses and enjoy!
