{Suggestion: If you cannot use maple syrup then by all means
either leave it out or use a favorite substitute. }

Spirit (Hardcover) by Andrew Weil, M.D. and Rosie Daley (Knopf)

The almonds in this invigorating shake make it a terrific source 
of protein, and blanching your own almonds is a great kitchen 
activity for kids.

1/4 cup blanched almonds
1 cup roughly chopped fresh pineapple
1/2 cup ice, crushed or cubes
1/2 tsp pure maple syrup
1/4 cup rice milk or soy milk
1/2 cup pineapple juice

Grind the almonds in a blender to a fine powder.

Add all the ingredients and blend until smooth.

Pour into 3 large drinking glasses.
(If you want to make more, repeat the recipes. Most blenders 
will accommodate only enough for 3.)
