Homemade Chocolate peanut Butter Banana smoothie!

During the summer, it's a good idea to make things that will cool you down on a hot day! I enjoy coming up with different ideas for smoothies! I almost always include a frozen banana! xD

Here's what you need:

-5 ice cubes

-1 cup soy milk

-1 frozen banana

-About 1 Tbsp. honey

-2 Tbsp. creamy peanut butter (not pictured)

-About 1 tsp. cacao powder (or cocoa powder)

For some reason, I always put the ice in first! xP

Then the banana...

And everything else! Blend it all together and...

IT'S DONE! So refreshing!!! xD

My Homemade Chai Creme Frappuccino!

I absolutely love the frappuccinos from Starbucks, especially the chai creme one! A grande chai creme frappuccino with whipped cream and soy milk is my usual! :P

I wanted to be able to make it at home and tried all sorts of variations and I'm very pleased with what I have come up with!

All you need is:

-6-8 ice cubes

-1 cup soy milk

-1/2 cup Tazo chai latte concentrate

-Maple Syrup (I used Mrs. Butterworth's!)

-A blender (DUH! xD)

First drop the ice cubes into the blender.




Next add in the soy milk...



And the chai...



And lastly...add in the maple syrup to taste!



blend, Blend, BLEND!!! I usually use "High Pulse" to break up the ice and then use the "Frozen Drink" option and I wait!



Taste it to make sure it's right and pour into your favorite glass!



And IT'S DONE! If you have whipped cream, you could always add that on top and maybe sprinkle on some cinnamon!



This is perfect for those hot summer days and it literally takes minutes to make! If you have a blender, spend a couple of bucks and do yourself a favor my making this amazing drink! ^-^
