Fruit Shake

Fruit Shake 

These are so good as the weather warms. Nothing beats a fresh pineapple or lime shake while enjoying a hot summer day.The great thing about these fruit shakes is their simplicity. Most smoothie style recipes get it all wrong. All you really want in a fruit shake is an icy and refreshing liquid taste of fruit; and as such these shakes have just three ingredients. Fruit, Ice, Sugar syrup... Fruit. The amount for most shakes can be thought of as a banana equivalent amount of fruit 1-3 or more tables of simple syrup Crushed ice, fill the glass you'll use about 3/4 full of crushed ice. Dump all the ingredients in a blender and give it about 15 seconds and you are done. The amount of sugar needed will vary with the acidity of the fruit. A sweet fruit like a banana or papaya will need very little sugar, but a lime or tart orange shake will need considerably more. Just add a bit to start, and stir in more as needed.
