When I saw many of my fellow food bloggers participating in Sig’s MBP for mixed drinks,I was inspired to do the same.I love to participate in events as it makes me try out different things which I normally wouldn’t. I dont usually make any drinks at home.We prefer to buy readymade juices.So when I saw this event, I really wanted to make something at home.This event was pretty easy as all I had to do was make something which was already featuredĀ on some blog. I chose Asha’s California Sunshine . The pic looked real yummy and since we always have orange juice in the fridge it was doable. I pretty much followed her recipe but the only change I made was I added a few pieces of banana and used orange juice instead of the concentrate she mentions and skipped the addition of vanilla essence.Have a look at the recipe here. My pic has not come out very well,you can always look at Asha’s pic and get the idea.The results were really great.Thanks Asha for such a wonderful drink.Cheers !!!
PS:As I mentioned earlier,this post goes to Sig for her “MBP for mixed drinks” event.

Just looking at the pic refreshed me. I’m sure the drink would have been a 100 times better than the pic.
I don’t know if I’ve ever told you this. But I never really saw myself as being a regular on a food blog and then needless to say, you came along and I absolutely love your blog. There is something about it that I absolutely love and it keeps me coming back for more.
The next time I’m in Freemont,if ever that is, I’m definitely dropping by.
Height of Shamelessness :- Me inviting myself over.
