I have something really special for you today and one that I know you all will enjoy.
Hippity Hoppity Smoothies
What
You Need:
1
C orange juice
½
C milk
1
pint pineapple sherbet
2
(6 oz) cartons pina colada yogurt
2
bananas cut in chunks
1
tsp. vanilla extract
1
C whip topping, divided
2
drops red food coloring
Black
string licorice
How
to Make It:
Pour
the orange juice and milk into the blender.
Carefully
add the sherbet, yogurt and bananas.
Add
the vanilla extract.
Blend
until very smooth.
Pour
into glasses.
Place
2/3 C of the whipped topping into a plastic baggie.
Cut
one corner of the bag to make a small hole.
Carefully
create a small circle on top of the smoothie.
Place
the other 1/3 of the whip topping in another plastic bag.
Add
the food color and gently mix until the topping has turned slightly pink.
Cut
the corner of the bag and make the eyes, nose and the ears for the rabbit.
Cut
the licorice strings to make the whiskers for each rabbit.
Place
the whiskers on the rabbit face upward toward the edge of the glass.
Serve
immediately.
Give
the kids a surprise with their smoothie.
The will enjoy the extra little bit of work you put into them. You can use pineapple juice in place of the
orange juice or even try apples with vanilla yogurt and raspberry sherbet for a
different treat. If your kids don’t like
black licorice try a toothpick with a little black decorator gel to make the
whiskers.
