Whipped to Perfection, Consistency of Soft Serve, Annie’s Banannies, More than Just Dessert, Downtown Rehoboth Beach, Delaware Beaches
I have been totally hooked on Annie’s Banannies since my friend, Renee, told me about it. I even question Annie the other day. I was wondering why she was closed on Mondays. Well, she is, actually, taking a well deserved Annie day off.
You wonder how a banana can transformed itself into an ice cream form. It is not ice cream, by the way. It is a frozen banana, put through a juicer. Toppings are added and that is basically it.
Annie’s Banannies is located at #9 1st Street South in Downtown Rehoboth Beach. One block off the Rehoboth Beach Boardwalk and one block south of Rehoboth Avenue. Tel. 302-260-9875. Website? http://www.anniesbanannies.net.
I wrote a post with pictures on 7/22/10. All you have to do is click on that month and year under the Archives of AboutMyBeaches and scroll down to the 22nd.
Annie has done some remodeling since the last time I was there. The counter looks great and speeds things up.
Upon entering Annie’s Banannies you will notice a board with all the flavors and explanations. On the website you can see every topping they offer, as well.
You will also notice that they offer gluten free, vegetarian/vegan, and lactose free toppings. They also use eco friendly cups. The spoons are made out of potato starch.
So basically, once you know your topping (you can build your own too) then this is what happens.
Out of the freezer comes the frozen bananas. The juicer is waiting.
It is put through the juicer into a cup.
Toppings are added. I chose the Bunchberry, which had strawberries, blueberries and raspberry puree.
Another customer was there and she let me take a picture of her Banannie Cocktail, which had strawberries, blueberries, green grapes and pineapple.
There are benches outside, on the sidewalk, where you can enjoy one delicious desert without feeling too guilty.
Your 4-legged friend can have water and a treat outside, as well.
Talk to you later….have a good one!!
Note: You can find Annie’s Banannies on Facebook. On Twitter as BananniesBeach.
