Licuados Recipes

LICUADO DE MANGO

Steps:

• Place the mango, milk, honey and ice cubes into a blender. Cover and blend until smooth. Serve immediately.

CANTALOUPE LIQUADO

Steps:

• Combine the cantaloupe with the milk, ice, and honey in a blender or food processor and puree until smooth. Pour into tall glasses and serve immediately.

LICUADO DE TAMARINDO

Steps:

• Place the tamarind pulp in a large bowl and pour the boiling water over it. Add the sugar and mash the pulp with a fork until blended. Set aside to cool to room temperature. Force the mixture through a sieve, pressing down hard on the solids, and discard the solids (seeds and tough fibers). Add 5 or 6 cups of cold water and taste for sugar balance. Add more water or sugar as desired, then serve in a tall glass over ice cubes, garnished with an orange segment.

LICUADOS

Steps:

• Pineapple Licuado
• In the jar of a blender, add all the ingredients and pulse briefly until the pineapple chunks are finely chopped (but not a puree). You will have to add the ingredients in 2 batches. Strain through a medium-mesh strainer. Chill well in the refrigerator. Serve over ice with a garnish of fresh pineapple.
• Tangerine Licuado
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl and whisk to blend. No need to strain. Chill well in the refrigerator. Serve over ice with a tangerine wheel for garnish.

DELICIOUS BANANA LICUADO

Steps:

• Before you can start to make and blend this easy drink, you will need to prepare the ingredients. This means gathering the ingredients, while also cutting them! You will need to peel the bananas and cut them into three sections each.
• Measure out the sugar, milk, and vanilla extract. Place these items to the side. You can also keep extra cinnamon in a container to add as a garnish if you'd like.
• Once the ingredients are gathered and you have your station prepared, add the milk and bananas into the blender. Blend these ingredients well with each other until the mixture is smooth. Although it is tempting to add all the ingredients together, blending the two primary ingredients first helps create a thin consistency.
• Once the mixture is smooth and thin, add the rest of the ingredients. Blend for about thirty seconds or until you notice that the solid ingredients are mixed in well. You can always do a quick taste test before serving.
• One it is complete and you feel satisfied with your creation, serve and pour the banana Licuado over ice for it to be cool. Garnish with extra cinnamon on top as needed.

PINEAPPLE LICUADO
