What's for Dinner: Strawberry-Mango Fizz

Tweet

A family favorite fizzy beverage is a strawberry and pina colada combination that we have done often. For our family party at the end of August, however, I wanted to make something different.

This time, I did a mango and strawberry combination. To sprite, add a splash each of mango and strawberry margarita mixers. Add ice. Mix well.

When I made the party size version [for the one at the end of August] in the dispenser, before mixing all the ingredients together, the combination of the strawberry and mango mixers looked like a sunset... so I decided to call it the "Sunset Fizz".

What's for Dinner: Strawberry and Pina Colada Punch

Tweet

Today's date? 11.12.13! Yes, things like that amuse me! But that's besides the point...

I have SO many recipes to post, I don't even know what to type up first. Not to mention that this month is very hectic.

This one is definitely another one of my "I can't believe I haven't already posted this on the blog already recipes". It's something I've been making for several years and everyone always loves it.


Anyhow, I find that fun [non-alcoholic] beverages are one of the hardest things to come up with sometimes for parties. A family favorite fizzy beverage is this strawberry and pina colada combination that we do [very] often in our family. Too often.

What I do is: to sprite, add a splash each of pina colada and strawberry margarita mixers. Add ice. Mix well.

Quick, easy, refreshing and delicious... and a crowd pleaser for sure!

What's for Dinner: Mango Smoothies

Tweet

Fresh mangoes. 

Yogurt. 

A little sugar (if needed).
Blend it all together at once.

Could it be any easier?

Someone asked me the quantities of each, and knowing me: I just throw in things until it looks/tastes right [except when baking... you can't do that in {most} baking... trust me!].

I'd guess that it was around 3 cups of yogurt, 2 and a half mangoes (I kept eating some... so definitely was not three whole mangoes), and about 3-4 tablespoons of sugar? Personally, I wouldn't have added any sugar but the rest of my family wanted it sweeter (and it will also depend on how ripe your mangoes are).
