The Best Drink For Hot Days!

August 11, 2017

Do you know these days when its not only hot outside but you have the feeling your blood is cooking and your body doesn’t want to cool down? – Today is such a day for me here in the city of angels. And I definetely need something to get my body cooler!

During my juicing experiences (100% juice fasting) I recognized that everytime I drank a green juice with peppermint, my body felt cooler than normal. So, what do you think might be the conclusion for me? – Exactly: when you want your body cool down, add peppermint!

We still had a huge watermelon 🍉 in the fridge, so I started making fresh watermelon juice from the scratch. Simply added some peppermint leaves out of the garden and a little lime. That’s it! – It’s so delicious & refreshing!

What is your favorite drink for hot days?

INGREDIENTS:

1 big watermelon
10 peppermint leaves
1 lime (peeled and cut in 4 pieces)

1 big container (to store the juice in the fridge)

INSTRUCTION:

Cut the watermelon into two pieces.
Cut out the watermelon pulp and place into the Thermomix® mixing bowl as much us you can fit in.

5sec/-/speed 5
If there is still space left, add some more watermelon
1:30min/-/speed 10

Ready to drink or fill into prepared container!

ThermoLin’s Yogurt Ice Dream

August 8, 2017

We actually love Yogurtland – but we are more and more into eating conscious, especially when it comes to hidden sugars.

And as there are a lot of fresh and delicious fruits available out there, we bought a bunch of bananas, nectarines and mangos, cut them in pieces, put them on a tray in the freezer over night and then in zip bags – ready to use for days like today.

And when we are craving for ice cream, we make a delicious ThermoLin’s Yogurt Ice Dream…. so 😋!

For easier preparation I use the recipe “Frozen Fruit Sorbet“. It’s in The Basic Cookbook, which is part of the package you get when you purchase a Thermomix – and therefor also on the Thermomix Cook-key®. The Cook-key®, this little magnetic box which can be attached to the Thermomix when using, is THE DIGITAL REVOLUTION! This little magnetic box makes cooking so much easier and so much fun – and still gives you the chance, like you will see here, to adapt the recipes to your own needs – and be the master of the cooking process!
