Did you know that the name of the today economically most important banana is Cavendish? Named after William Cavendish who had already planted bananas from China in 1830?

When nothing goes anymore, bananaskeep going. At the Frankfurter Großmarkt there’s a weekly conversion of about 360 tons of banana. That’s about 3,5 million bananas weekly. And that’s although the zoo is in Berlin. Or am I messing things up right now?

Take: One cocktail bowl. Please contain yourself! I don’t mean a whole bucket. Grab the shaker and fill it up with crushed ice, 1 egg yolk, 2 cl of un-whipped cream as well as 4 cl of banana liqueur. Mix it well and fill up the bowl. Grate some nutmeg over it if you have some and that’s it. Tim tim!
