Notes

  • Double the recipe and make popsicles! YUM.
  • You can substitute juice for the milk options. Pineapple or orange juice would be yummy.
  • Use my tried and true method of layering the ingredients to your blender: Add the liquids first. Add any greens, if using. Then add any soft ingredients like fresh fruit. Finally, add any frozen fruit. Blend slowly at first, then turn the speed up and blend until smooth.
  • You can easily customize this recipe. You can substitute more of the other ingredients for one you may not like or are out of OR use another tropical fruit in its place.
