How To Make Banana Pudding

BUBBLE GUM BUZZ RECIPE

Recipes for 4 DRINKS
This combination of fruit flavors and tequila tastes just like bubble gum.
The only thing that makes it pink is food coloring. But it tastes so real, you
might be blowing bubbles afterward.
3 cups ice
1 banana, peeled and broken into pieces
3 ounces gold tequila
3 ounces Cointreau
4 ounces crème de banane
4 ounces orange juice
Juice of 2 limes
2 teaspoons superfine sugar
2 drops red food coloring
4 pieces “soft” bubble gum for garnish
Combine all the ingredients in a blender. Cover and pulse on and off until
the mixture starts to swirl evenly. Blend on high for 20 seconds, or until
the drink is completely smooth.
If desired, garnish the edge of the glass with “soft” bubble gum.

Variations

You can add 2 drops of any food color you prefer, but change anything
else in this drink and it just won’t taste like bubble gum.
STRIPED BUBBLE GUM BUZZ Make the recipe without any food coloring.
Pour half the drink into a small pitcher and add 2 or 3 drops of your choice
of food coloring. Stir well. Add 1 drop of a different color to the drink remaining
in the blender. Blend quickly to incorporate the color. Carefully
spoon the different colors into a tall glass because if you pour them, you’ll
mix the colors.
