Wracking your brain for something utterly delicious but no one has ever had before? This is a goodie. It is not in my B & B Cookbook, so you are getting it here now.
- 2 1/2 cup plain yogurt (NOT GREEK)
- 1 1/2 tsp. grated fresh ginger
- 1/2 – 3/4 cups pistachios (salted, in shell)
- 1 tsp. ginger syrup
- 1/2 cup whipping cream
Spend a couple of minutes and shell the pistachios and coarsely chop.
In a blender put all the ingredients, except the whipping cream and blend until completely smooth. Add the whipping cream and blend a few seconds until a nice, thick consistency (not too thick like a milkshake).
Pour into pretty, chilled glasses and top with some crushed pistachios.
Serve with croissants, butter, slices of melon, coffee….yummmmm What a way to start the day. Our guests would have loved this one. They will probably want more – make them wait until the next time around.
Midori Martini

- 1 part lime juice
Pour ingredients into a shaker with cracked ice and mix well. Strain into chilled glasses. Garnish with a slice of honeydew melon.
