Smoothie Combination

I am in love with green smoothie but I still like my blueberry smoothie as well. I wonder if I combine those. ^^ Love the color that will blend. Anyway I love smoothie that's bit thicker. Hubby loves that's bit thin so he can use straw easily.


Ingredients

Blueberry smoothie
Some blueberries
Orange juice
Bananas
Organic golden flax seeds
Black Jack cherry Frozen yoghurt
I didn't measure those.. depends on how many glasses you wanna have

Green Smoothie
Baby kale
Baby Spinach
Orange juice
Bananas
Mixed frozen fruits (manggo, papaya, strawberry, pineapple)

Methods
Smooth the frozen or rough stuff first with orange juice then you can add the rest of the ingredients. If you like sweet, you can add lil sugar. 
Blend using magic bullet. 
Prepare the glass or jar. Pour the color that you like first. Garnish on top with frozen blueberries. 
The taste is sweet and got the tart sensation from the green smoothie. Love it!

Es Cendol


Ramadan is coming soon!

Glad finally I could make this jelly drink 
I have no idea this kind of dessert is famous not only in Indonesia but also most of south east asia.

Got plenty recipes on youtube!




For Jelly, I used the ready mixed, vietnam product.


I only added coconut milk 1 can when I cooked it, 1.5 cups of water and 1 tsp of salt.
some friends added white lime paste *kapur sirih* 
This is the second time I made but this one I didn't add coconut milk

FYI it's simple but need power to stir it
non stop! OHMY

For the syrup, just brown sugar and water boiled till all sugar dissolved, added jack fruit and Pandan leaves to give fragrant n flavor.

For the coconut milk, cook till it's bit simmer lil bit gulping almost like boiling, added corn starch for lil thicker. 
Don't forget added pandan leaves as well.

Garnish Jack fruit. *optional* 
I got it in a can, diced it.
Several ice cubes.

Served in a glass, jack fruit in the bottom, then syrup,ice cubes,jelly,coconut milk.
Stir before you drink it.

HAVE A NICE RAMADAN

Es Blewah / Cantaloupe drinks


Ramadan is coming soon!
This kind of drink should be around in the house hahaha
I have no idea what ingredients in it. I assumed it is shredded cantaloupe or blewah which I have no idea in English >_<


I got this when we had potluck on sunday. Everybody brought something to be eaten together. One of the guests brought this drink. I guess she bought it since I saw the cooler as a container written "Paid, thank you!"
