Smoothie od bobičastog voća/ Summer berry Smoothie

Please, scroll down for recipe in English

Prvi puta sam probala Smoothie kada sam bila u Dublinu, u ljeto 2008.godine.

Uobičajeno prijepodne uz šetnjicu, već poznati bar iza ugla našeg hostela – polazna točka našeg cjelodnevnog izleta. Uz pokoji Donuts u ruke i Smoothie zapakiran u malene plastične čašice iz koje izviru po dvije plastične slamčice, zaputili bismo se u daljnje istraživanje predivnog grada vesele glazbe i Guinness piva. Smoothie je bio pravo voćno osvježenje, voćni fiks za rano jutro, vitaminski napitak i antioksidans koji nam je pomogao izdržati cjelodnevno razgledavanje koje je trajalo danima. Novi okus!

Kažu da Smoothie potječe još iz nama davnih 1960-ih godina kada je po prvi puta u Americi ponuđen kao zdrava varijanta Milk shakeova koji su bili uobičajeno spravljeni s sladoledima. No, tek 1990-ih godina postao je popularan. 

Vjerujte mi da ćete ga zavolit bilo da je izmiksan s svježim ili zamrznutim voćem, sa tekućim jogurtom ili nekim voćnim sokom. Pustite maštu na volju i kombinirajte :)

English version

Smoothies are blended beverages that are often mixed with fresh fruit, crushed or shaved ice, frozen fruit, or other fruit juices. Smoothies usually do not contain ice cream (that’s what milk shakes are for). Smoothies date back to the 1960s in US when they were offered as healthy alternatives to milk shakes but it wasn’t until the 1990s that they began to really catch on.

I tried Smoothie when I was in Dublin (Ireland) in summer 2008. You will love it, so blend your own mixture of yogurt or fruit juice, fresh or frozen fruits :)
