Feijoa and Rose Vanilla Slushy

Catching the last of the summer sun on our deck this morning we sipped our feijoa and banana slushies perfumed with Dilmah Rose Vanilla tea. Using hot tea to make a cold slushy might sound unorthodox but trust me it works.

This recipe is healthy and sugar free.

Recipe:

4 large feijoas
1 large banana
1 teaspoon of Dilmah Rose Vanilla tea leaves
1/2 cup of water
1/2 cup of chilled yoghurt

Method:

• The night before slice the banana and chop the feijoa flesh into chunks and freeze
• Just before serving make the tea with 1 teaspoon of Dilmah Rose Vanilla Tea and 1/2 cup of boiling water. Stir after 1 minute, then let it brew for 3 more minutes.
• Pour the hot tea over the frozen banana and feijoas and give them a stir. This will help to separate the chunks of fruit,
• Put into a blender or food processor and add 1/2 cup of yoghurt.
• Whizz together until it is slushy.
• Serve immediately in 2 small glasses or 1 large.
