Awesome!!! I made a virgin one too, and I added berries insted of strawberries and added apple juice insted of the rum and brandy. It was amazing! -
I must confess that I made "virgin" smoothies. I wanted the kids to have some and they gave it flying colors! I added a little more milk since I didn't use rum and brandy and I used some banana extract too. Thanks!
