Do you have a favorite blender recipe?

[tater bug]

Since things are heating up out there I was wondering if you have any favorite drinks that involve a blender. Alcohol is fine - even preferred.

The other night I made a milkshake using sugar free ice cream and a tiny bit of milk. Add a little kahlua or vodka and we'd have a winner!

What's in it, sdoane?

I don't own a blender. If I did, I'd make milk shakes though.

pina colada mix, light rum, dark rum, passion fruit juice, oj and ice. It's even better on the beach of Castaway Cay!

Great thread idea...especially since frozen drinks happen to be my favorite!

My fave recipe is more for the holiday season (Christmas...yes, I drink cold things then too!)...it is vanilla ice cream, egg nog, and spiced rum....YUMMY!!!

My other is pina coloda mix, rum and frozen strawberries!

I do crushed ice, frozen pink lemonade (I don't follow the instructions on the can) use a bit less water, vodka and chambord.

A frozen grape crush!!! Yummy!

Now that sounds good MAC3. I'll need to try that today!

used to get these when I lived in California. Had to start making them myself once I moved away.

So simple, but so good, especially on a hot day!

Lime Sherbet
Pineapple juice

Seriously, that's all. Blend, thicken or thin it per preference. The place I used to go used to top it with whipped cream and a frozen strawberry. Add alcohol per preference. I used to in college, but now just make them plain.

They are delicious but be careful they sneak up on you because they go down sooooo smooth!

Enjoy!

mmmm, sounds good!

Not to toot my own horn, but I make a delicious frozen mudslide.

Equal amounts of Kaluah, Vodka, and Baileys. Then add ice, and Breyers Vanilla ice cream(has to be Breyers). I sometimes serve it with crushed oreos on top or whipped cream and oreos.

They all sound good. Keep'em coming!

May have to spend some quality time by the pool sampling these.
