Saturday Sips: Champola
Dessert, vitamins, AND a drink in one? Oh yes, my sweets, nothing but the finest.
*Makes one drink
Champola
2 ounces acerola or cherry juice
2 ounces Puerto Rican rum
1 scoop vanilla ice cream
Combine juice & rum in a serving glass. Add ice cream & serve.
Acerola, also known as the Puerto Rican cherry, is abundant throughout the country. Lighter in color & more pungent than the Bing or Lambert cherries commonly found in the US, the acerola has among the highest concestrations of vitamin C of any known fruit. While the use of the acerola juice will make this recipe more unusual & authentic, any variety of cherry, black cherry, or even orange juice will work well as a substitute.
Cheers, girls! If you have a great sip recipe, do share!
Kiss kiss,
Berk

First of all....I LOVE this template!! Secondly, thank God that Breyers makes lactose-free vanilla ice cream so that I can try this drink (otherwise I'd be puking my guts out....well, maybe I'll be doing that anyway if they're as good as they sound...don't think I could limit myself to just one!)
Merry Christmas, my fellow blonde friend! :)
