You might remember the recent (heavenly) Dirty Monkey Cookie recipe I shared, well in that post I shared the story of how my love of everything banana & chocolate came about…I first discovered the Dirty Monkey frozen rum drink while on a vacation in the Dominican Republic years ago, it’s been a staple for me on hot summer days ever since! The delicious frozen chocolate banana drink inspired me to create the cookie, and now I’ve taken it one step further…I’ve concocted a SKINNY version of my favorite frozen tropical drink. Enter The Skinny Dirty Monkey Freeze…
The Skinny Dirty Monkey Freeze (serves 2)
one serving is less than 150 calories!
Gather Up:
one banana
3 oz. spiced rum (I used Captain Morgan)
2 T skim milk
1 packet of Stevia sweetener
1 tsp cocoa powder
1 T Greek vanilla yogurt (optional, makes it creamier, yum)
1.5 – 2 cups of ice
a dash of granola to garnish the top
Throw all of the ingredients inside a blender and GRIND! The finished product should look something like this…
Such an amazing treat =)
Enjoy!
You just made my dreams come true! My husband and I discovered this in Cozumel a few years ago and loved it. We’ve lovingly called each other Mono Sucio (dirty monkey) ever since. I’ve never been able to find a comparable recipe and I’m a terrible mixologist. And its low cal? Bonus! Thank you!
Jenny, I’m so happy I could bring this amazing drink to you! I hope you enjoy it, cheers!
