It’s still hot in Puerto Rico so why not try a Frappe? Today’s recipe is a tropical Frappe.  Hope you guys enjoy it. I used a mix of papaya, mango and pineapple. I froze fresh fruits or buy froze fruits without added sugar. (Campo Verde) The less you add the better flavor you'll get. Very soon I’ll be making mango sorbet don’t miss it and thanks for reading me. Enjoy!

½ cup home made lemonade

¼ cup water

1 1/2 cups of frozen tropical fruits (mango, papaya and pineapple)

Fruit Punch

Glass of fruit punch

Today's recipe is fruit punch! Here in San Juan, Puerto Rico where I currently live, the temperatures are very high in the summer. Well... today is a very hot day, so I decided to make fruit punch. When my husband came home from work he was really happy. I made  Honey glaze drumsticks with Scalloped potatoes au Gratin with herbs and this fruit punch for dinner. After a long day at the office he was pleased to be home.

Ingredients:

Ingredients

3 cups of frozen pineapple                      

2/3 cup of sugar

1 can of concentrated orange juice

1 can of concentrated guava juice

1 cup of concentrated acerola juice (Caribbean cherry)

2/3 of a gallon of water

Procedure:

1)   Put the pineapple in a bowl with the  sugar and wait until it has thawed.

You will see liquid, that's good!

2)   Put the resulting mixture in a blender and add just enough water to cover the fruit. Now blend until you’ve reached the consistency of juice.

3)   Put the three concentrated juices, the pineapple mixture and the rest of the water in a jar and mix or shake well.

4)   Put it in the fridge and enjoy an awesome fruit punch!

This is the 2 gallon plastic jug I used.

Note: This recipe makes approximately three gallons.
