The blender – do you only use it for that secret mayonnaise recipe of yours? Dust it off and try something truly refreshing. Here are the ideas!

A growing trend in bars today is the invaluable blender. There is no reason at all not to use it at home as well: Using – for example – fresh fruit, cold espresso coffee, crushed ice and the right spirits, you come along way ahead your friends.

The increased popularity of the blended drinks might be coming from non-alcoholic environments. On Strand in London, there are a dozen coffee shops in under a quarter of a mile. Every single one serves special, non-alcoholic milkshakes. And taking an Atlantic crossing: In the salty beach air of the American South, the frosty, frozen Daiquiri is so popular that it no longer has to contain nor Tequila, lime juice or simple syrup – it is rather the term for any frozen, blended drink.

 

In sunny Pensacola, Florida, we found this refreshing recipe:

1 part Blackberry Liquor
