    Tropical Smoothie

    Two smoothies with garnish

    This Tropical Smoothie has all the flavors of summer-pineapple, strawberries, banana and coconut. I add a little ginger to the smoothie to add a little spice. The ginger is subtle and is a nice contrast against the sweetness of the fruit.

    I can't think of anyone who wants to drink a smoothie in the winter but I have been in need of a Michigan winter pick me up. It's been pretty cold and snowy here lately and the only thing that's getting me through is thinking about summer.

    A couple notes about Tropical Smoothie:

    Add whatever you want:

    I make this smoothie for my two year old daughter quite often. She's a big smoothie drinker. I will add in cauliflower rice, frozen zucchini, a handful of spinach or kale and some hemp seeds. This is an easy way for me to disguise some good-for-her veggies. Keep in mind this smoothie isn't only for kids! Feel free to add whatever you would if it helps you get in your vegetable servings for the day.
