We all worry about whether our kids are eating properly and healthily. We continually ask ourselves how to get them to eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, and face an unrelenting torrent of advertising for sweets, fizzy drinks, crisps and other "Junk Foods". All the time wondering whats in them!
Juices, Smoothies and milkshakes are the quickest and easiest way to make sure your kids not only receive the vital nutrients for healthy growth, but, just as importantly, enjoy their food at the same time. Get them involved in the preparation and they'll enjoy it even more.
As you know kids of all ages like to help with cooking, they love making a mess in the preparation stage, can't wait to lick out the bowl and get a huge buzz out of 'polishing off' something they helped to create. Most kids however, are easily put off if they think its even remotely healthy or looks bland. All the recipes here produce delicious vibrantly coloured drinks that kids will find irresistable.
Nutritionists generally agree that children need sugars and fats in their diet to ensure healthy growth, so giving them treats such as the smoothie and milkshake blends that follow are a fun nutritious substitute to the processed sweets and fizzy drinks our kids crave.
Smoothies and Juice cocktails are a lively addition to any childrens party, and will make you a hit with the kids - and their parents too!
So, whether its a drink for breakfast, an after school boost, a dessert treat or just for the heck of it these delicious concoctions will definitely hit the spot.
We recommend the following equipment to ensure fun and functionality:
1. A juicer - Any one of the juicers in our range will do the job.
2. A blender - Your blender should be powerful enough to chop ice as some of the recipes require this.
3. A range of different shaped glasses and beakers ( They can be coloured, however we prefer clear glasses as they show off the bright, vibrant colours of the drinks better.
4. A variety of straws, cocktail umbrellas, cocktail sticks and the like to add more fun to the experience.
Banana Ice Cream
Choose ripe, yellow bananas.
One banana serves approximately one person.
Remove the peels, wrap bananas in plastic and freeze. When thoroughly frozen, insert one banana at a time into the your juicer using the blank strainer. If you dont have a masticating juicer you can try blending or mashing the frozen banana.
Here are two variations of the basic banana recipe. Freeze the berries in their own separate plastic bag. Once frozen, blend the berries with the bananas. Strive for a ratio of 3:1—three parts banana to one part berries.
Strawberry Banana Ice Cream
6-8 Ripe Bananas
1 pint Strawberries
Blueberry Banana
6-8 Ripe Bananas
1 pint Blueberries
