Smooth Criminal!

Just as Batman has risen this summer, so has my BLOG.

    After yesterday's inability to function because I was so tired, I thought I'd step up my push and shove relationship to coffee and try something different. I combined my morning smoothy with my morning coffee, but technically doesn't count as my one coffee a day rule...mwhahahah, take that self regulating rules.

Taken from "refresh" 

Rocket Fuel Espresso Shake. Here's what you'll need to take off....3..2...1.....

 - 1 dbl shot of espresso, or strong coffee

 - 6 oz or 3/4 Cup. vanilla Almond milk * recipe calls for soy milk, but if you concerned            about  growing soy based hormonal additions   *cough cough*, almond milk works jusssst fine.

 - 1 B-A-N-A-N-A, peeled *put of hollerback girl and continue to bang this smoothy out.

 - 1 tsp. of Maple Syrup

 - 1 shake, shake of cinnamon

- 6 ice cubes, plus one for Watson

What I did, and what the recipe tells you to do, are two different things, my way is easier


 - Throw the banana and milk together, blended it until smooth. I then added the espresso, maple syrup and cinnamon.
 I followed up with the ice cubes (this is when it goes side ways), I only have a hand blender so the ice cubes where noticeable, if you had a fancy blender it would  work better. All and all it was good and a nice kick start to the day of packing



stay cool this weekend! eat lots of ice cubes

Have a great long weekend!
