Sweet Treat!

Hey guys,

Yummy! I am a total smoothie guru and big time fan! My favorite all-time smoothie is called the Peach Slice Plus from Smoothie King, but let's be honest. As refreshing as these treats may be, I rarely want to reach into my purse and pay $5-7 for one. So I started making them on my own for about one-eighth of the price. I love mixing a whole bunch of fruits and vegetables into a blender for an all natural-sweet treat. Here was tonight's creation. I mixed:


Pineapples
Strawberries
Mangoes
Peaches
Banana
Fresh Orange Juice
Honey



This is also a great way to preserve your fruit if it is starting to get over-ripe, but you're not yet ready to eat it. Just throw it in the freezer and take it out when your are ready to blend. Frozen fruits can replace the need for ice cubes which I think makes the smoothie taste way watered down. When you're done, throw it in a wine or martini glass so that it looks cute and enjoy!
