watermelon smoothie, grapefruit and basil “the confusing”
Ah les smoothies…ma grande passion du moment ! Oui c’est comme ça, je sais pas vous, mais moi je fonctionne un peu par modes et en ce moment ce sont les smoothies à la pastèque. Because yes, après le smoothie fraise pastèque, « le déroutant » est le modèle du jour mais comme j’aime vous gâter (ne me remerciez pas !), il y aura encore un version à venir (je vous l’avais dis quand j’aime, je ne compte pas !) !!!
J’ai donc préparé ce smoothie pastèque pour des amis un jour où la chaleur était vraiment pesante, et je crois que ce coup de fraicheur leur a plu. Yes because I had never combined watermelon with basil, not even grapefruit by the way, and I must say that the result is…confusing (found the name well, non ?!) !!! I assure you this smoothie is a treat, I love its little casual side, well yes sweet basil we don't eat it every day !
A smoothie you can sink your teeth into (it's just an expression eh ?!) !!!

1.9.13Now that I have a great blender (the Magimix blender, very powerful, which even scares me a little), I'm waiting for the recipes, the various inspirations 😉 This smoothie intrigues me… This mixture of flavors : watermelon, grapefruit, basil… don't know ! Thanks for the idea.
You're right, in kitchen, there are fashions, and the blogosphere proves that people have a great tendency to follow them, whether in terms of recipes or photographs and their genres. Kisses and have a nice day 😉
