CHEW THE RIGHT THING
BITE IT!
HG's Slammin' Slimmed-Down Strawberry Daiquiri
Talkin' Daq
It's still summer, people! And what better way to celebrate than with a
strawberrylicious frozen drink that's totally guilt-free?! This one's ripped right
from the pages of our best-selling cookbook, and it's so good you'll want to
MARRY it! Really... you will. Try it and see...
Ingredients:
1 shot (1 1/2 ounces) rum
1 packet (two 5-calorie servings) sugar-free powdered drink mix, any
strawberry blend
3 frozen strawberries
1 tbsp. lime juice
5 - 8 ice cubes OR 1 cup crushed ice
Directions:
Dissolve drink mix into 1/2 cup cold water. Stir thoroughly. In a blender,
combine drink mixture with all other ingredients. Blend to desired
consistency. Pour, add a straw, and slurp that baby up! MAKES 1 SERVING

Strawberry Daiquiri, Average
This Daq Is WHACK!
What poolside fantasy would be complete without a giant frosty glass full of
the delicious drink known as the strawberry daiquiri? Ahhhh... Well, snap
back to reality, people! Cuz' that mug might as well contain a couple of
donuts, considering all the calories it's packing! And those stats can get even
worse since many restaurants and bars serve these up in fishbowl-sized
glasses (or scarier... refillable pitchers!). But we're not quite ready to pull the
plug on this dynamite drink (no way!). Invite some pals over, put the keys
aside, and indulge in a batch of our Slammin' Slimmed-Down Strawberry
Daiquiris! Cute pool boy and hot bartender not included (sorry!)...

Today, September 2nd, is National Blueberry Popsicle Day. Since NO ONE
out there seems to manufacture a blueberry popsicle, we recommend
pouring HG's Too-Good Two-Berry Citrus Smoothie into a popsicle mold and
freezing that sucker! Instant blueberry(ish) popsicles!
