WOW! This is a great easy drink. I made mine in the magic bullet, omitted the rum and used Splenda - about 1 1/2 tsp. This will be perfect for summer parties - even for the kids without the alcohol. Thanks for posting! -
not a fan...can't taste the banana flavor even a little - would require quite a bit of tweaking

Love those healthy cocktails ;) I made this one as directed, then after tasting, wanted a bit more banana flavor. So I added 1 1/2 oz of Banana Liqueur which worked out perfectly! Cheers, Bliss! -
I was anxious to try this and wasn't disappointed. Hubby and I had one as an after dinner drink... man, are these ever good (and you get your potassium too,ha, ha). Because I usually have these ingredients on hand anyway, I'm sure this is going to be a tradition. Can't wait to make this for the "gang". They are going to love it. -

Very good! I used a whole banana instead of a half, for more banana flavor. An excellent freshing cocktail for a hot summer night that is easy on the budget, as well. As far as calories go, it's way less than your average Daiquiri drink. I don't like overly thick frozen drinks...the kind that are so thick you can't even suck through a straw to end up with a brainfreeze anyhow.... and this is not one of those kind. Instead of pure sugar, I'd like to try it with a sugar substitute, such as Equal or Splenda, next time. Thanks for passing this on!

I'm trying to figure out my new rating system. As of 10/1/06, this is how I'll rate recipes. I will be changing some previous reviews.
5*~~Outstanding recipe--the best of the best here.
4*~~Something I find delicious; will make often; would serve to guests.
3*~~Something I might fix again; enjoyed; needed something added before I try again
2*~~Something I could finish, but would never try again, regardless of additions or subtractions
1*~~Could not finish it; would not even make possums suffer with this (I haven't found many of these--only one of my own that I grabbed from the internet!!)

The little cutie here is Martha, the sweet lady I was blessed to have worked with for two years. Martha passed away on 12/3/08. Martha and I would ride endlessly during the holidays, and she would sing carols and laugh and just enjoy it so much. I know this holiday season, she will be with her brother, son and mother and finally be "home". Martha, I still love you more.

I'm a simple girl, born of good stock. I'm the mamma of two spoiled tuxedo cats: Beauregard and Patches (the one who's been drinking eggnog). They love cuddling together, and this picture is taken on my hall steps.
I'm a firm believer in LOA. I need to get more dedicated to daily practice. Below is a film that explains it, and is wonderful. I highly recommend it.

This is Beau enjoying his computer. He's quite good at deleting messages, making the desktop disappear (as is his brother). Their path to the window is over my keyboard.
