I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Software and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!

	Cherry, Green Tea, and Mint Fusion

You might think the unusual ingredients in this smoothie would clash, but instead they harmonize in a subtle way, resulting in a smoothie that is not only sumptuous but healthy because of the addition of green tea, known for its high antioxidant value. Who said if it’s good for you it can’t taste good!

   3 green tea bags (or 1 tablespoon loose green tea leaves)
   3 to 4 large fresh mint leaves
   1/2 cup boiling water
   1 cup orange juice
   1/4 cup sugar
   1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
   1 1/2 cups sweet cherries, halved
   1/2 cup vanilla ice cream

Place a strainer over a medium bowl. Line a baking sheet with freezer paper. Set aside.

Place the tea bags and mint leaves in a medium bowl. Pour the boiling water over the tea mixture and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Allow the tea mixture to steep for 2 minutes.

Place the orange juice, sugar, and vanilla in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Strain the tea mixture into the orange juice mixture (discard the tea bags and mint) and blend well. Add the cherries and blend. Allow the mixture to come to room temperature. When the cherry mixture is cool, transfer it to the strainer over the bowl (reserve the liquid). Place the cherries on the prepared baking sheet and freeze for 1 hour or more. Cover the bowl containing the liquid and refrigerate.

When you are ready to make the smoothie, place the reserved cherry mixture liquid, the cherries, and the ice cream in a blender and mix by using the on/off pulse function until the ingredients are mostly blended. Continue mixing, gradually increasing the speed, until the mixture is smooth. Pour the smoothie into a glass and garnish with a Vanilla Pirouette (see Great Garnishes), if desired.
