Recipe for Decadent fig and rosewater smoothie
Serves 2
This will take five minutes at most. To ensure that it stays rich and luxurious I haven't added any cooling ice to this smoothie so make sure that the milk and yogurt are both straight from the fridge.
2 large ripe figs or 3 if they are small
150g natural, organic yogurt, the thick sort (about two thirds of a cup)
about 150ml milk (about two thirds of a cup)
1 tsp honey (a fragrant, flowery one)
2-3 drops of rosewater
Tip: this doesn't need to be exact so I just tip in the whole pot of yogurt and then measure a yogurt pot full of milk.
Trim any excessively unripe green parts at the top of the fig and chop each fruit roughly into quarters. Put into a blender and blitz until smooth.
Add the remaining ingredients and blitz again until everything is blended and a few frothy bubbles appear at the top. Taste and add extra honey if required.
