BASKIN-ROBBINS STRAWBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE

BASKIN-ROBBINS STRAWBERRY BANANA SMOOTHIE
It was in 1953 that the now-famous “31 Flavors” sign was
introduced, burdening customers with the dilemma of
having to decide which of so many great ice cream flavors
they would choose. The number 31 was picked to suggest
that a new flavor could be selected every day of the month.
The company has come up with around one thousand
flavors so far. And as with their most famous flavor, Rocky
Road, many other Baskin-Robbins flavor creations would
be often imitated—among them Pralines and Cream and
Jamoca Almond Fudge.
This recipe for a smoothie is very similar to the previous
clone, the only difference being a reduction in strawberries
and the addition of half of a ripe banana. You may want to
chop up those frozen strawberries (especially the big ’uns)
to make measuring easier and more accurate.

1 cup Kern’s strawberry nectar
½ cup frozen whole strawberries, chopped
1 scoop fat-free vanilla frozen yogurt
½ ripe banana
3 or 4 ice cubes

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend on high
speed until all the ice is crushed and the drink is smooth.
