Cocktails for weight loss at home in a blender recipes. 7 recipes for the most delicious cocktails in the world, prepared in a blender

Chocolate cocktails prepared in a blender with the addition of milk or ice cream are a favorite and tasty treat, although quite high in calories. You can prepare it according to a variety of recipes, but in this article I have collected for you those that have already been tested and prepared many, many times.

To make the drink very tasty, it is recommended to take high-fat milk; it is advisable, of course, to choose fresh country milk. Before starting cooking, the main ingredients should be cooled. In this case, the temperature of the finished cocktail will be approximately +5…+6 degrees.

You should not prepare such drinks in advance. You cannot even store them in the refrigerator, as there is a high risk of milk curdling. Therefore, after cooking, it is recommended to drink them immediately.

Classic recipe prepared according to GOST

Let's start with, perhaps, the simplest classic recipe, which is familiar to many. The most important thing is to maintain the proportions of the ingredients. And then the drink will turn out very tasty.

What you will need:

25 g ice cream.
25 ml chocolate syrup.
100 ml milk.

If you don't have chocolate syrup on hand, you can easily replace it with a couple of tablespoons of cocoa powder. But it is recommended to take ice cream without any additives. And it’s best if this ice cream contains only natural ingredients.

How to cook

Place the milk in a glass in the freezer for an hour. To prevent ice crystals from forming, stir from time to time with a spoon. If the container has a lid, you can simply shake it.

First pour the cooled milk into the blender, then chocolate syrup or cocoa, and then add the ice cream.

Beat all the ingredients at high speed for a minute, and then immediately after cooking, pour into glasses and serve immediately.

You can decorate the finished drink to your taste. In this case, its temperature after cooking will be +5…+8 degrees.

Dietary

Cocktails in a blender, the recipe of which can be endlessly changed to suit your taste, can also be consumed during a diet. Especially if they are prepared according to special low-calorie recipes.

With banana and oatmeal

The basis of this cocktail is low-fat yogurt. You need to choose a natural, unsweetened option.

Ingredients:

oatmeal – ¼ tbsp.;
natural low-fat yogurt – 2/3 tbsp.;
banana – 1 pc.;
bee honey – 2 tsp;
skim milk – 1/3 cup;
ground cinnamon – ¼ tsp.

Do not remove cinnamon from this recipe. It is one of the main fat burning components.

Preparation:

First of all, you need to place a banana, peeled and cut into small pieces, into the blender bowl.
Next, add oatmeal to the fruit. There is no need to grind them in advance. The product will quickly become soggy in the yogurt.
All that remains is to add honey, ground cinnamon and pour milk and yoghurt over everything.
Next, the ingredients must be blended together in a blender bowl until smooth and pureed.

The finished cocktail can be immediately poured into glasses and drunk. To decorate, use a pinch of ground cinnamon, scattering it on top of the resulting drink.

With tomatoes and seaweed

The calorie content of such a cocktail is only 84.8 kcal per 100 ml.

And BZHU:

BJU	Value in g per 100 g
Squirrels	2,3
Fats	6,4
Carbohydrates	6,3

Ingredients:

tomatoes – 130-150 g;
avocado (ripe, soft) – 100-120 g;
basil (dark, fresh) – 10 g;
dried seaweed (spirulina) – 2 g;
sunflower seeds and curry powder - 2 g each.

Preparation:

The first step is to deal with the tomatoes - wash them, cut them into pieces and puree them in a blender.
Next, add dry seaweed to the resulting tomato mass. But first you need to crumble them directly with your hands.
Before adding basil to the cocktail base, you need to rinse, dry and finely tear it with your hands. Seeds - crush.
The avocado needs to be peeled, the pit removed, the pulp mashed with a fork and added to the rest of the ingredients along with the curry.
All that remains is to blend all the ingredients together with a blender until smooth. If the mixture is too thick, you can dilute it with water or tomato juice.

The finished cocktail must be cooled, poured into glasses and served immediately.

There are several main secrets to making delicious cocktails:

liquid is the main component of the drink under discussion, it should be at least 100 ml (if there is not enough juice, you can use water, milk, unsweetened chilled green tea);
if beetroot juice is added to the cocktail, then after squeezing it should be allowed to sit for approximately 2 hours and only then used;
to enhance the taste of the drink, various spices are used, for example, ginger and cinnamon;
The maximum amount of sweetness is contained in an overripe banana, so it can easily replace sugar;
if the drink seems too sweet, you should add a small amount of fine iodized salt to it;
It is better to take only fresh fruits for a cocktail in a blender according to any recipe, not frozen.

Vanilla Joy

Sweet vanilla with a delicate taste goes perfectly with any chocolate milkshake that has ice cream added to it. There are no special differences in preparation from the previous recipe. The only thing you need to remember is a slightly different set of ingredients.

What you will need:

Milk – 110 ml.
2 scoops of chocolate ice cream.
A tablespoon of vanilla extract.
40 g chocolate chips.

If you don’t really like the chocolate option, then in this case you can simply replace the ice cream with vanilla.

How to cook

Chill the milk in the freezer for about an hour. Remember to stir to prevent crystals from forming.

It is better to leave the ice cream on the kitchen table so that it melts a little and becomes thick.

Mix all ingredients, except the chips, in a blender and beat in the usual way. The whisking time will be about 5 minutes.

Pour the drink into glasses and sprinkle shavings on top. Remember that the serving glasses themselves must be well chilled.

Banana chocolate shake

When preparing this delicacy, it is better not to add fresh apricots, currants or raspberries to it. The fact is that these ingredients will cause the milk to curdle. But the combination with banana will come in handy.

What you will need:

Milk – 290 ml.
Ice cream – 200 g.
2 tablespoons cocoa.
A pair of ripe bananas.

Never add pieces of fruit to your drink. The first thing to do is peel them and turn them into puree.

How to cook

Peel the bananas, cut into slices and mash with a fork. Can be pureed using the same blender.

Add cocoa to bananas, stirring constantly. As a result, we should get a uniform dark caramel shade.

Add the remaining ingredients, blend with a blender for 6 minutes and immediately pour into glasses for serving. Banana slices work best as decoration.

How to choose?

On the one hand, to crush ice or frozen fruit, which are quite often the main ingredients of cocktails, you need a lot of power, which a stationary machine has. Also, one of its advantages is its ease of use: all you have to do is put the ingredients in the bowl, press a button, and the blender will do everything for you.

These models often also have a self-cleaning function. But you need to remember that a stationary blender has quite impressive dimensions and may not fit into a small kitchen, and also vibrates quite strongly during operation.

The submersible model is much more compact . In addition, many functional attachments will definitely come in handy when preparing a variety of cocktails. But it also has its drawbacks. For example, when working, you need to hold it in your hand for a long time.

The required power for making cocktails is about 500 W, which will make the device heavy, and therefore working with it will be quite long and difficult. In addition, it is worth remembering that immersion blenders have two types of bowls: with and without a lid. And in the absence of a cover, you are completely unprotected from splashes and dirty walls.

Chocolate and strawberry treat

A chocolate shake with strawberries made with milk is a real treat for children and adults. If you don't have fresh berries on hand, you can use frozen ones.

What you will need:

200 g strawberries.
400 g chocolate ice cream.
500 ml milk with 2.5% fat content.

If desired, chocolate ice cream can be easily replaced with ice cream or even coffee syrup.

How to cook

If the strawberries are fresh, they must be washed well and cleared of stems and debris. If the berries are frozen, defrost them at room temperature.

Mash the prepared strawberries with a fork.

Transfer the finished puree into a blender bowl and pour milk into it. Beat for a couple of minutes at high speed. Don't forget that the milk should be ice cold.

Then add the ice cream and turn on the blender for another 5 minutes. If desired, you can use not only one strawberry, but also a mixed berry.

Milkshakes

The basis of such delicious cocktails are dairy and fermented milk products.

Sometimes even plant-based milk is used, which is acceptable for vegetarians to include in their diet.

With sesame milk

This cocktail option is a vegetarian recipe. It contains no dairy products of animal origin. And sesame milk for the base of the drink is prepared independently.

Ingredients:

water (filtered) – 1 tbsp.;
sesame – 0.2 tbsp;
banana – 1 pc. (ripe, large);
honey (natural bee) – 1 tbsp. l.

The proportions of products for making sesame milk yourself are calculated very easily. At 5 tbsp. water take 1 full glass of sesame seeds.

Preparation:

Light sesame seeds (the seeds do not require pre-roasting) must be filled with water at room temperature and left in this form for at least the whole night. It is most convenient to soak the product overnight and continue preparing the cocktail in the morning.
After the specified time has passed, the sesame seeds along with water must be placed in a blender bowl and blended until smooth.
Next, the resulting mixture must be strained through the finest sieve, and the cake must be discarded. At this stage, the sesame milk will be completely ready. You can prepare a cocktail based on it.
The banana must be chopped in any convenient way. For example, just mash it with a fork and add it to the milk along with honey. The cocktail components again need to be blended with a blender.

When the cocktail becomes homogeneous, you can try it immediately.

The drink should be thoroughly cooled before serving. Then you can pour it into glasses. To decorate the latter, moisten their edges with sweet water and then sprinkle with light sesame seeds.

What you will need:

A bar of any milk chocolate.
A couple of bananas.
30 g dark chocolate.
300 ml milk.

Melt the two types of chocolate separately in a water bath. This is perhaps the most difficult part of making a delicious drink.

How to cook

Leave the ice cream on the kitchen counter and let it melt a little.

Pour cooled tea over it. Mix.

Peel the tangerines and make puree from the segments. But you can just squeeze the juice.

Is it possible to make smoothies with an immersion blender?

I really want to write it down here, right now I felt all the help of technology in the household. Yes, a washing machine is a thing, but it is already familiar to all city residents. The dishwasher also helps a lot, I load it 2-3 times a day.

And now we have a combine and a dryer.

We bought the dryer with the intention of using it at the dacha, because in rainy weather the laundry does not dry there at all, even for a week of drying. The husband studied the issue in as much detail as possible - a washing machine combined with a dryer did not fit, because there is increased wear on the parts of the washing machine due to strong heating and cooling with running water, which means that our well will be pumped out during one such drying, and then drained onto the site . The flood cannot be avoided.

We bought a separate one and decided to put it in the hallway and test it. Now I don’t really want to take her to the dacha, because it’s so convenient with her!

1. no need to hang out washed laundry. Just throw it in the dryer and take it out dry, immediately putting it in the closet. Well, or slightly damp for ironing.

2. Things turn out less wrinkled and without rope marks. I don’t have to iron my corduroy pants at all after this. I haven't checked the jeans yet.

3. It is possible to dry one wool item separately. I tried it - it dried almost completely, only the elastic was slightly damp, in half an hour!

4. Nothing shrunk or spoiled for me, although I dried both cotton and synthetics, and even mixed, and even with more intense drying. Drying takes from 1.5 to 2.5 hours.

It turns out that I can do 2 washes a day, when it is convenient for me, without focusing on whether the dryer is busy. And wash and dry something urgently. Remembering the first months with Tim and his cloth diapers - this is a very relevant purchase.

The second purchase is a Bosch combine harvester. Cuts into cubes, shreds, slices, grinds, there is a glass for cocktails and puree, a knife for mixing dough, a whisk.

What I did: vinaigrette, vegetables for soup, potatoes for frying in slices, vegetables for salad in thin strips, like Korean carrots, or slices - cutting takes about 2 minutes.

Cake dough, cake cream - very quickly too. mixed perfectly.

Koloboks from dried fruits and nuts - ground the mass. SOOO pleased! I had 2 blenders, a large separate glass and a small glass with an immersion part. None of them coped well with dried fruits and nuts - some were ground and stuck together at the bottom, some rose above the knives and hung there. And the knives were spinning in the void. As a result, it was necessary to constantly stir, which was tiring.

And then I threw everything in, turned it on, and everything ground perfectly, eventually rolling into one big ball, which in the end began to “run” around the combine :).

In general, now preparing cakes and pastries, cutting salads and vegetables has become very simple. Truly the best purchase of the year.
