Ingredients
Fresh Figs
- 15 Figs fresh
Sweeteners & Dairy
- 1 cup Honey or to taste
- ½ cup Vanilla Ice Cream
- ¾ cup Milk whole milk recommended
Instructions
- Wash the fresh figs gently. Peel the skin and chop them into smaller pieces. This ensures a smooth and even blend.
- In a blender, combine the chopped figs, ¾ cup of honey, and the milk. Blending these ingredients first creates a smooth base for the smoothie.
- Blend until the mixture is completely smooth. Add the vanilla ice cream and pulse briefly a few times to incorporate. Avoid over-blending to maintain a creamy texture.
- For a refreshingly cool treat, refrigerate the smoothie for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the smoothie to thicken slightly.
- Pour the chilled fig and honey smoothie into serving glasses. Drizzle a touch of extra honey over the top for added sweetness and visual appeal.
