But I digress.
Picking up with my Cookbook Challenge where I humbly attempt to make a recipe from my vast collection of cookbooks and blog about it every Wednesday, I decided to make a beverage - a smoothie to be exact.
While on one of my many forays to Border's during their "Going out of Business" sale, I picked up the following book for $1.99 - Cool Smoothies - Fast, Fun, Frozen Treats.
I love mangoes so I chose this recipe - Monkey Mango Smoothie.
Ingredients:
Finished product:
Easy to make and very frothy, it was just okay. Maybe it needed some alcohol or something :)But, I look forward to making other concoctions from this book.

Pretty color and yep, a little rum never hurt anything:@)
Alcohol makes everything taste better. ;)
A little rum makes any smoothie better.
We fix smoothies ALL the time - I will check this out, thanks!!

Hey Carmie!
Oh yes, some rum would definitely liven it up! Sounds like a good recipe though...and you can't beat the price for that book! I got a couple good deals at the Borders sale. Thanks for stopping by and checking out my reviews!
