Come be a princess with us! Yes, you! All little girls are princesses (age is irrelevant here). We profess our love of magical realism and commend this movie for its beautiful visual storytelling. We also find a few holes in the movie plot that make it tough to fully believe this story - even though we totally believe in the magic. Come relive Jordan’s childhood with us!
Episode Drink: A Mango Lassi
Ingredients
Instructions
Put mango, yogurt, milk, sugar and cardamom into a blender and blend for 2 minutes.
If you want a more milkshake consistency and it's a hot day, either blend in some ice as well or serve over ice cubes. Pour contents into a glass and sprinkle with a tiny pinch of ground cardamom to serve. The lassi can be kept refrigerated for up to 24 hours.
