Patio Parties at Magnolia Gardens

Patio Parties at Magnolia Gardens

The sun is brilliant, the temperatures are in the mid 30s and everyone’s mind is focused on the same thing ……. Hydration. (I bet you didn’t see that coming!) As one of the fun new ways to ensure that the residents drink plenty of fluids, the Magnolia Gardens Recreation team held a party on the back patio where they served refreshing fruit smoothies to a very appreciative crowd. With the soothing  cadence of the fountains in the pond tinkling in the background, those assembled enjoyed quiet conversations along with their delicious refreshments.

Fabulous Fruit Smoothies:

2 cups crushed ice                                           ¼ cup fresh blueberries

1 cup orange juice                                           ¼ cup fresh strawberries

1 cup cranberry juice                                      ¼ cup chopped fresh mango

½ cup strawberry yogurt                               ¼ cup milk

½ cup vanilla yogurt                                        1 banana

Add items to the blender in order given, blend on high speed until smooth. Enjoy!!!
