The most recent email had a fun article on kid-friendly mocktails & suggested that kids should have spec beverages for their parties & also tasty + festive beverages to enjoy while their elders drink cocktails on spec occasions & holidays. Per the intro, “Shirley Temple, take a bow & step aside. Some new entertainers have taken center stage. The effervescent, sometimes sparkly, always refreshing & totally non-alcoholic mocktails are beverages that kids & partygoers of all ages will enjoy. ” These 2 recipes are the final ones from the series I have entered. *Cheers* . Ingredients:
2 quarts apple cider |
1 cinnamon stick (3 inch) |
1 (3 ounce) box cherry jell-o |
2 1/2 cups pineapple juice |
1 cup strawberry (sliced) |
1 banana (sliced) |
1/2 cup coconut cream |
6 strawberries (whole, for garnish) |
Directions:
1. MELLOW JELL-O: Add apple cider & cinnamon stick to a saucepan & bring to a boil. Reduce heat & simmer 15 minutes. Add Jell-O to cider & stir till it dissolves (about 2 min). Serve hot.
2. TOOTIE FRUITY: Place all ingredients in blender w/2 cups of ice & puree till smooth. Garnish ea glass w/a strawberry.
3. NOTE: Altho entered together, the times reflected relate only to the MELLOW JELL-O recipe which is served hot - BUT the TOOTIE FRUITY recipe has a 2 min prep, is a non-cook recipe & is served cold.
