Why You’ll Love This Recipe
- It’s fresh! Nothing tastes better than a frozen drink on a hot summer day. But a lot of frozen beverages are loaded with juice and added sugar. This Pina Colada Smoothie uses only fresh fruit, so there is no added sugar!
- It will keep you full! A lot of smoothie recipes out there are primarily made with fruit. Fruit is what helps a smoothie taste sweet, but if you don’t add any protein or healthy fat, it might not keep you satisfied for very long. This smoothie contains both protein and fat, helping to keep you full for hours!
- It’s customizable! Just like all of my recipes, this Pina Colada smoothie can be customized to your liking! Want it thicker? Add ice. Want it thinner? Add more milk. Want to sneak in extra nutrients? Add a handful of spinach! The options are limitless for making this recipe your own!
Step One: add fruit, milk, yogurt, flaxseed, and turmeric to blender.
Step Two: blend and enjoy!
