Indian Summer Mint Julep



Would you care for a little taste of India? This blend that I concocted out of pure desperateness of a smoothie blends lots of sweet spices and cool coconut milk. It's my Eastern version of the classic Mint Julep...only creamier, a lot more aromatic, and has zero alcohol!

Indian Summer Mint Julep - non alcoholic
1 Coconut Milk
1 Mango, peeled & diced, keep a few pieces for garnish
1 Heaping Tbsp. or 2 Sprigs of Fresh Mint, chopped
1/4 tsp. Cinnamon
2/4 tsp. Cardamom
2 tsp. Agave Nectar
2/3 C. Water
Ice (a couple of handfuls)

Directions: Simply blend all of your ingredients together. Place a sprig of mint in your glass and then pour a few ice cubes in to keep it in place. Pour over ice and garnish with a few pieces of sliced mango. Hit it with a drizzle of agave nectar.
