Cook’s tips

 

For best results use fruits that are just ripe (without being overly ripened).

 

To make the drink cool faster, chill the fruits in the refrigerator before putting them in the blender.

 

For larger servings, double the amount of the ingredients.  However, you may have to process this in batches since it may not fit in the blender.

 

Keep any leftover juice in a tightly covered container in the refrigerator.  Blend or stir well before serving.
