Published May 2006 - Spiral/Hardcover - 112 pages - $9.95

Whether it's frozen drinks, smoothies, or party drinks, they're all here, and more.  With many people becoming more aware of what they put into their bodies, and those eliminating sugary store-bought and preservative-laden drinks (I'm guilty - I love bubbly sodas), this is just what you need to help you get creative in the drinks department.  Fabulous fruit and vegetable drinks to keep you healthy, like bananas, strawberries, pineapples, peaches, papayas, cantaloupes, tomatoes, cucumbers, bell peppers (yes!), blueberries, sweet potatoes (who'd have thought?), watermelon, and oranges.  Recipes for drinks include: Ectoplasm; The Three P's; Pinacado; Melon Mania; Coco Lala; and The Bee's Knees.  There's even a recipe for a fruity and warm mull.  Beautifully illustrated with much information to help guide children when making drinks.  Drinks for all seasons and a healthy way to keep yourself refreshed, or nourished, as in the case of Breakfast Smoothies.
Do see my other Rose Dunnington reviews - Big Snacks, Little Meals and Sweet Desserts.
Conclusion - Essentially a book for children, but it'll be useful to people of all ages - we all get thirsty, right?
