Tropical Treats
When Madame Jeri wanted to make some smoothies with the cooking class elective kids, she looked online at several different recipes.  Combining the ingredients, the students created a small sampling of each tropical smoothie from different fruits. In the end the students created many tangy, tropical creations, all different in their own unique way, but all with the great tropical, fruity, and flavorful explosions. For you kids who like to cook at home or may simply be interested in trying these refreshing drinks, the recipes are as followed below.
