Recipe by Kids in the Kitchen:

1 scoop raspberry sherbert
1/2 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup 7-up or Sprite

1. Place rasberry Sherbert in a drinking glass
2. Pour pineapple Juice and Sprite/7-Up.
3. Let Sherbert melt a little, then serve.

Makes 1 serving

Jaden Review:
Liked it a lot. Even made a second one. Much better than last drink I tried from same book. Reminded me of a rootbeer float but fruity. I could really taste the sherbert. 4 stars


Mom Review:
This was way better than last drink Jaden made! I could see this being a good kid party drink. Jaden chose to use Sprite instead of 7-Up and it turned out good. I even tried to add a Cherry to add to the look but kept falling over and that is the red at the bottom of the glass in the picture, LOL. Overall, everyone wanted more, so I call this a success and thinking of using it for my son's birthday party in a couple weeks. This one actually could possibly combine as an adult party drink with possibly a little rum or vodka. Wish I had alcohol in my house to try out that theory, LOL. I give it a 4 stars also.

Jaden Review:
Not too bad but needs more peanut butter. Little too much banana taste and not enough peanut butter. Had to put into fridge to get it cold again after being in blender. Decided to give the rest to Willow and I just got the peanut butter and crackers out instead. 2 stars

Mom Review:
ICK... Blah....SPIT. Someone give me a beer to wash this taste out of my mouth ASAP..... Aaahh, that's better! Oops, kids blog, I meant a root beer. Well I think that sums it up for me. Maybe if there had been some ice cream in it? I will give it 1 star for simple fact I am sure I will taste worse at some point of all this and I will reserve 0 star for those.

Cleanliness:
It was easy cleanup other than the fact that Willow pushed hers away and spilled it. I am guessing her rating of this drink is low too.
