It's mango season, we've got dates all year round,
pineapple and cucumber every other day so, why not
make a smoothie. The inspiration for this smoothie
came about while standing in line outside the banking
hall waiting for my turn to use the ATM. The April sun
was scorching hot and i had about 15 people in front
of me.
Just when i was about leaving the line due to the slow
ATM, a young guy walked out of the bank with a
chilled bottle of smoothie shaking the bottle vigorously
as he passed by. When he came close, i curiously
asked him what it was thinking it was kunu and he told
me it was a smoothie. Like WOW! Smoothies are now
packaged in naija...hmmm!! i liked that. Into the bank i
went to get my own bottle of smoothie packed in a
50cl bottle and sold for about 250 bucks. The next
day, i decided to make my own version although i had
to customize mine to have a sweet base with a fruity
appeal...just the way i like it ;).
