Gigi Is Moving!

Photobucket
That's right Gigi is moving back to L.A.!

Sorry for the lack of recent posts, things have been crazy here getting ready to move half way across the country- while working full time!

Unfortunately for the next couple of weeks as I move and get settled in the reviews may be sparse but I plan on tossing in updates on road food during the drive back home.
So wish me luck and if there are any can't miss foods along I40 I would love to hear about them.

Fuze Refresh- Peach Mango

Photobucket
Think of this as sort of a ready made Mango Lassi
If you have never had a Lassi before you are missing out and if you don't know what it is, it is basically an Indian smoothe (click the link for more info)

The Fuze version is skim milk rather then yogurt and the texture is not quite as thick as a smoothee (or a lassi) but the flavor is similar. The mango eliments reminds me or of the mango that you find in frozen bar drinks or sorbets rather then fresh mango. What I mean by that is that it is very sweet. Sweeter then you would get from eating a piece of the actual fruit.
The same thing can be said about the peach. The peach actually reminded me of cling peaches stright from the can.

Put together the two fruits and the milk make for a smooth drink. Sweet and creamy but not heavy. Personally, I am not a huge fan of milk based bottled drinks but this is one of the best options I have tried.
