(ENG-ESP) TIZANA/BEBIDA REFRESCANTE

During the last New Year's holidays I wanted to surprise with something new, healthy and different from what is customary at family dinners and it occurred to me to present myself with this delicacy, of course everyone at home was very surprised and little interested in me. particular contribution to the table, but my Tizana and I were just waiting for the perfect moment and a few hours after dinner one of the children asked, What about Tizana? I immediately thought: they are going to fall, and just as you are imagining, everyone ordered their traditional drink, they loved it and I achieved my goal to SURPRISE

En las últimas fiestas de año nuevo quería sorprender con algo nuevo, saludable y diferente a lo que se acostumbra en las cenas familiares y se me ocurrió presentarme con esta delicia, desde luego que todos en casa quedaron muy extrañados y poco interesados ​​por mi particular aporte a mesa, pero mi tizana y yo solo esperamos el momento perfecto y unas horas después de la cena uno de los niños pregunto ¿Y la Tizana? Inmediatamente pensé: ya van a caer ¡, y tal cual como se lo están imaginando todos pidieron su bebida tradicional, les encanto y yo logre mi objetivo SORPRENDER.

Days later I decided to present it in this community to share my anecdote and of course to publicize this colorful and popular Venezuelan drink that no one can resist trying. TIZANA is generally made up of fruits such as patilla, orange, pineapple, banana, tangerine, melon and grenadine (some other recipes add mango and papaya) but I make a simple version that contains many more liquids than the normal one as follows:

Ingredients:
• 1 kilo of Patilla
• 500 grams of Melon
• 1 Small Pineapple
Equipment and Tools:
• 1 Blender
• 1 Chopping Board
• 1 Knife
• 3 Containers
• 1 Juice Jug
• Glasses (whatever you like to serve)
You can vary these quantities according to the portions of drinks you want and in this recipe I prefer not to add grenadine or sugar so that it is more natural, the procedure is very simple, here I show you.

Ingredientes:
• 1 kilo de Patilla
• 500 gramos de Melón
• 1 Piña Pequeña
Equipos y Herramientas:
• 1 Licuadora
• 1 Tabla para Picar
• 1 Cuchillo
• 3 Envases
• 1 Jarra para Jugos
• Vasos (los que guste para servir)
Estan cantidades las pueden variar de acuerdo a las porciones de bebidas que deseen y en esta receta prefiero no añadir granadina ni azucar para que sea mas natural, el procediminetos es bien sencillo aqui les muestro.

To prepare my Tizana, I settled in the patio of my house to enjoy the outdoors and the environment of the plants. It is very satisfying to be in natural spaces. So let's get to the fruits.

• We wash the pork, melon and pineapple well, and begin to chop it into small cubes.

• Lavamos bien la patilla, el melón y la piña, comenzamos a picar en cuadritos pequeños.

• We blend half of the leg with a little water to make the base juice.

• In the juice jug we place the blended leg and add all the other fruits including the rest of the left leg.

• Licuamos la mitad de la patilla con un poquito de agua para hacer el jugo base.

• En la jarra de jugos colocamos la patilla licuada y agregamos todas las demás frutas incluyendo el resto de la patilla quedo.

• In a glass we add some ice cubes and serve or you can also let it cool in the refrigerator (without letting it freeze).

• En un vaso agregamos unos cubos hielo y servimos o también pueden dejar enfriar en la nevera (sin dejar congelar).

TIZANA can be consumed at any time of the year and as you can see it can also appear at any family meal, shared at parties or with your favorite dish or simply taken as a snack on a lazy afternoon. I guarantee it will be very pleasant and will brighten your day.

Cheer up and prepare your own version of TIZANA and enjoy with your best friends, colleagues and families
