Recipe #182 Fruit Drinks

Fruit Drinks (Becca)

Frozen fruit (strawberries, bananas, mangoes, pineapple, etc.)
1 container yogurt (vanilla is what I usually use—any flavor would be good)
½ cup milk
½ can frozen juice concentrate (I like the mixes, like the Hawaiian’s Own juices)
can also add fresh or canned fruit-bananas, mandarin oranges, peaches, pears, raspberries…

Blend together and serve! If it doesn’t taste right, add something else until it does. Adding vanilla ice cream makes it sweeter and more like a milkshake, too.
