Chicago Hangs Lately

 Iced Pour Overs from Gaslight Coffee Roasters in Logan Square c/o Popular Pays, too! So yum!

 Peyton with her blueberry pie to go ♥.

Coffee & a waffle from The Winchester also c/o Popular Pays. I LOVED this place! I'm traveling home on the train tomorrow back to Taylorville to see my cousins. I haven't seen them all together in 5 years so expect a huge cousins photo shoot!

Vegan Strawberry Mint Peanut Butter Smoothie

Strawberry Mint Peanut Butter Smoothie Recipe:

3 organic mint leaves, chopped

1 cup of soymilk, almond milk, or rice milk

1/4 cup of strawberries, chopped

a dollop of your favorite peanut butter

and blend!

I garnished the drink with a mint leaf and a strawberry. The amount of peanut butter you add will determine a lot of the taste... so I recommend only using a little bit to really let the strawberry flavor come through! I Think I put a little too much peanut butter for my liking in this one! XO!

Cinnamon Honey Mint Iced Coffee

In this recipe, I made fresh coffee that was cherry flavored from Meijer, and chilled it in my freezer for about ten minutes. I chopped up 2-3 leaves of washed organic mint and strained the coffee once more through the filter with the mint leaves. After the mint leaves were infused into the coffee, I drizzled honey and sprinkled cinnamon on top of the drink and garnished with a mint leaf. I finished off the meal with organic granola, Stonyfield organic yogurt, and a chopped up organic gala apple. Viola!
