Start your day with a burst of sunshine by enjoying a Tropical Fruit Smoothie! Packed with vibrant flavours from juicy mango, sweet pineapple, and creamy banana, this refreshing smoothie is a delightful way to energize your morning or cool off on a hot afternoon. Easy to make and loaded with vitamins, it’s the perfect blend of taste and nutrition. Sip your way to a tropical paradise, no matter where you are! 

Number of plants: 6

Servings: 2

Ingredients

  • 1 banana
  • A cup of frozen mango
  • A cup of frozen pineapple
  • 1 block of frozen spinach
  • 1 apple
  • 10g chai seeds
  • 4 or 5 heaped tablespoons of kefir or natural yogurt, occasionally I swap the kefir for milk

Instructions

1.

Blend until completely smooth. Add water, a little at a time, to loosen the fruit and get it to your desired consistency.

2.

Top tip: frozen fruits help to give the smoothie a thick and creamy texture.

Add a dash of lime juice for an even zingier flavour!

Swap for other fruits of your choosing, if preferred.
