Lime and Longan Slush with Pomegranate - Fruit Week #6


It's crazily hot these few days right?
Last year December it was pretty chilly.. well, for Malaysia a night temperature of 22C is considered chilly. And after Chinese New Year, it turned so so so so hot. The sun stings the skin and it's a pain to go out, even in the shade.

Even Lyanne reduced her diaper use, it seems much much dryer now : ( All that she ever drank seem to have evaporated rather than passed out.

This is perfect for this stupid weather. After I downed one shot of this, I felt so much better. My MIL said it was good too.

Lime and Longan Slush with Pomegranate
Recipe source: Wendyywy

200gm ice (lightly crushed before use)
1 Tbsp lime juice
80ml longan syrup (from the can)
1 Tbsp sugar or more (I used 2 Tbsp of homemade sugar syrup cooked using 1:1 volume ratio)

Blitz everything in the blender until fine. Pour into serving glass, top with canned longan flesh and pomegranate




Next,
Seafood Week

I'll be cutting my posting days from Monday to Friday.
Let's make it a 5 day work week now, :p
See you on Monday

    No wor, because I do drink plenty of water and other liquids. So, I do visit the tandas a lot. Like today, I drank two huge bowls of leftover soup; the night before, about half a watermelon.
