  1. Very tasty and not a heavy drink. DS has been asking for smoothies all the time lately so this was a nice change to the banana smoothie he usually wants. I did add 1 Tbs Splenda but otherwise made as written. Made for Think Pink 10/2011.
     
  2. This was very tasty! I did use vanilla frozen yogurt and light cranberry juice, but I don't think those substitutions made any difference. Next time I'll use a little less juice to make it more like a shake, but this was a really nice drink! Made for Think Pink 09.
     
  3. WONDERFUL Flavor! I put twice as much cranberry juice since I like cranberry flavored items and 1 teaspoon of Splenda. Very tasty indeed! Easy preparation. Prepared as a participant in the The Pink Event October, 2009.
     
  4. I thought this was refreshing, but my kids didn't care for it (and the recipe description did suggest this is a good alterntive for the "wee" ones). I guess for kids, it might not be sweet enough for a "milkshake" looking beverage. But I think it would appeal to adults. Made for the Think Pink tag game October 2009.
     
  5. Nice flavors and quite refreshing. I like how the flavor of the cranberry juice still comes through quite well. I used a frozen vanilla yogurt in place of the ice cream. It was not as thick as I thought it would be and is really just a nice beverage. The color was a light beige so I added a few drops of red food color to make it pink. Made for the Think Pink Event October 2009.

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!! I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch. We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
