ICE AGE (RECIPE & GIVEAWAY}


Since it is summer, and because I had such an incredible response to the last ticket giveaway, I decided to accept another advance screening giveaway similar to the one I had for BRAVE.

As you can see from the picture above, this advance screening is for the upcoming 20th Century Fox release, ICE AGE: CONTINENTAL DRIFT. The movie is set to release in theaters on July 13. In this fourth episode, a slew of new characters are being introduced, including Jennifer Lopez, the voice for Shira, a fierce saber tooth tiger. (Love interest for Denis Leary's character, Diego, perhaps?)



THE RECIPE

With so many of us around the country caught in the grips of the horrible heat wave, below is a refreshing recipe by one of our favorite chefs, Colombian-American Ingrid Hoffman, shared on behalf of ICE AGE: CONTINENTAL DRIFT.

Coconut Popcicles

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice
  • 6 coconut all-fruit popsicles (recommended: Frozen Fruit)
  • 1 cup demarara or turbinado sugar
Directions
Pour the pineapple juice into a tall and narrow glass. Remove the popsicles from their wrappers and, 1 at a time, submerge them, tilting the glass to completely moisten the entire popsicle. Sprinkle each side of the popsicle with some sugar and arrange the popsicles on a plate and serve immediately.


THE GIVEAWAY

Once again, I have the opportunity to offer 20 (TWENTY!!) MommyMaestra readers a family four-pack of tickets to an advance screening of the movie ICE AGE: CONTINENTAL DRIFT.
