Vanilla Love Shake

I love the taste and smell of vanilla, like so many with me. The love connection goes all the way back to the mythology of the Totonac people of Mexico. According to their mythology, the tropical orchid which vanilla is extracted  from, was born when the blood of two forbidden lovers were spilled on the ground. The love connection continues into the old medicinal literature where vanilla is described as an aphrodisiac, and today it is one of the most widely used fragrances in perfumes. In purely scientific terms, the medical effects of vanilla is little explored, however it has been shown to increase adrenaline and to have antibacterial properties.

For no other reason than that the rich and sweet flavor of vanilla gives a feeling of happiness, I made this shake today.
