NEW Drink of the Week!!!!

Well i know i've missed like 5 drink of the weeks, i had to take a break from the blogging world a bit...but i'm back and i've brought the new drink of the week with me :D This week's drink of the week is : Spicy Banana milkshake...it's completely brand spankin new, becuz i just made it up! Lol...seriously i made it up, i love mixing and experimenting with drinks...especially milkshakes, i always make homemade milkshakes and my favorite is banana...so while making my banana milkshake i decided to mix things up a bit by adding a few spices, and eureka!!!...i got a new drink of the week. It tastes just like ur typical banana shake but with a little bit of umph to it, and i can never have too much umph.. if ya know what i mean :P Well u guys know how we do this, here are the ingredients, followed by the directions and a pic of the drink, hope some of u try this on ur own and let me know how u like it...Enjoy all!

Ingredients: Serves 2 very tall glasses, ohh yeaaaah!

1o scoops of your favorite vanilla ice cream

2 ripe bananas sliced up

1/2 cup evaporated milk

3/4 cup whole milk (can be substituted with 2%, 1%, skim or even soy milk)

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp almond extract (a must have in all my shakes, i just love the flavor)

1 1/4 tsp rum extract ( some of the umph i spoke of earlier)

1 tsp ground cinnamon

1 tsp ground nutmeg

5 dashes of apple pie spice



All u really need to do is throw everything into a blender, in no particular order...mix until smooth, and serve. I topped mines with whipped cream, and garnished it by sprinkling some nutmeg and cinnamon sugar on top of the cream and adding 2 slices of banana to the rim of the glass...and i added a straw and drank my troubles away! Hope everyone enjoys it as much as Junior and I did :)
