This smoothie is just plain fun...it was fun to make, fun to see my kids faces when I handed it to them and fun for them to drink! Its colorful, its sprinkle-y and topped with whip cream!! I did make one mistake when I whipped this baby up which was that I made it for my kids right before I was about to leave dad in charge. I may have gotten those kiddos a little sugared up for dad night. Whoopsie!
O well, I've learned my lesson. Now lets make this smoothie!
Before I blended my smoothie I wanted to sprinkle up that glass. You just need to wet a paper towel and rub it on the outside rim of the glass so that the glass edge is damp. Next, lay out a dry paper towel on the counter, then pour out a good amount of sprinkles on that paper towel. Grab your glass and roll the damp outside rim of the glass on the paper towel with the sprinkles and roll it around until the whole rim is covered in sprinkles. Since it's wet the sprinkles should stick right on. When you are done rimming the glasses you can put any remaining unused sprinkles back in the bottle.
Next you will want to blend the smoothies. I wanted to make mine two layers, so to do that you will need to make each flavor separately. Once they are both made I decide which layer seems to be the thickest and that one gets poured in the glass first. Then I pour on the next layer for a two different color smoothie.
Once the smoothie layers were in, I topped mine with whip cream for a bonus layer of fun. Feel free to omit this step, maybe if you are about to leave your children with someone else for the day :)
