SUNSHINE TROPICAL SMOOTHIE

Made this for breakfast today from stuff I had on hand. Freezing over-ripe bananas is a great way to always have them on hand for breakfast smoothies, and it's another great use for bananas that are beginning to turn brown other than the ol'standby: banana bread! Simply peel your over-ripe banana, break into pieces that will blend in your blender, and place in a ziplock freezer bag. They are ready to go! For this recipe, be sure to use coconut WATER, not milk, which gives this smoothie just the perfect "hint" of tropical coconut flavor. Coconut water has 15 times more potassium than that found in sugary sport drinks, and that it contains five key electrolytes. It is the water found inside the coconut after it has been filtered through the coconut's husk.

Tips:

  • Use frozen fruits: Frozen fruits are key to a thick and creamy smoothie. Fresh fruits can be used, but they will result in a thinner smoothie.
  • Add a variety of fruits: Don't be afraid to mix and match different fruits to create a unique flavor combination. Some popular fruits to use in a tropical smoothie include mango, pineapple, banana, papaya, and berries.
  • Add other ingredients for flavor and nutrition: In addition to fruits, you can also add other ingredients to your smoothie for flavor and nutrition, such as yogurt, milk, protein powder, greens, and seeds.
  • Adjust the sweetness to your liking: If you find that your smoothie is too tart, you can add a little bit of honey or maple syrup to sweeten it up. Alternatively, if your smoothie is too sweet, you can add a little bit of lemon juice or lime juice to balance out the flavors.
  • Garnish your smoothie: Once your smoothie is blended, you can garnish it with a variety of toppings, such as fresh fruit, granola, or chopped nuts. This will add a pop of color and flavor to your smoothie.
