Whew! It's hot around here! I was out sweeping my front porch and almost passed out from the heat! No, literally, passed out. So on hot days like these, or really any time of year, my boys love for me to make them a licuado de platano. I remember as a little girl in Mexico, my grandma used to make me this frothy concoction that made me feel all happy inside :) Of course back then she also used to put in one raw egg for protein. Those were the days when Rocky Balboa used to gulp down a few of those babies before his morning run, remember? Now we omit the the raw egg!! It's very simple and very yummy!! You'll need one banana 2 cups of milk sugar to taste (about 1/4 c) dash of cinnamon 1-2 drops of vanilla blender Take your peeled banana and slice it up. Pour the milk into the blender with the sliced banana, the cinnamon, sugar and vanilla. Blend well. Serve immediately. This makes enough to fill up about 2 1/2 glasses for my boys. They love it!! I use Chocolate Almond ...
