We’ve been experiencing amazing weather in San Francisco, upwards of 80-90degree temperatures. The locals take advantage of such weather by mostly going to the beach, wearing summer clothes and showing off their unique footwear/sandals. These are all things we seldom do here in the city, since it’s always cold and often times more foggy than we care to think about.

With this weather, I have to say I’ve lost my appetite for food, craving mostly salads, popsicle and frozen drinks. So, in honor of HOT in temperature that is, I have included a smoothie which I found here, but have added a few of my own alternatives, since I am allergic to soy.

Mango Smoothie

• 1 banana
• juice from 2 blood oranges  ***well I use regular oranges
• 1/2 mango
• 1 cup soy milk  ***I use almond milk instead

Place everything in a blender and blend until puree.
