This sunshine in a glass Pineapple, Mango and Orange Smoothie is refreshing, filling, loaded with vitamins and can be ready in less than 5 minutes.
We're having yet another cloudy and rainy day here, and I'm really in the need of some serious sunshine. I decided the best way to get it would be to create it in a drink. So after looking in the freezer and finding some frozen pineapple and mango chunks, I decided to make a Pineapple, Mango and Orange Juice Smoothie. So delicious and refreshing!
This smoothie is healthy, filling, and provides you with a good dose of vitamins. Smoothies are a great way to make use of seasonal fruit and veggies. You can use fresh or frozen fruit, just open your refrigerator or freezer and take a look at what you have. You can create so many different variations depending on what you have on hand. I actually prefer the texture of smoothies when I use frozen fruit. It makes it so thick and creamy, it feels like you are having a frozen treat! So next time you chop up a fresh pineapple, remember to put some away in the freezer, you'll be glad you did when you search your freezer for your next smoothie ingredients. Enjoy!

Delicious. This is why I need a suitable blender.
Oh, and 17C is warm! It hasn't even been anywhere near that over here yet. Apart from today I've been wearing Winter clothing. I do have a beach just down the street though!
Sweet and Savoury Pursuits says
Thanks. Well, let's keep our fingers crossed that it only gets warmer. I hope you'll be able to enjoy the beach soon enough! Thanks for visiting and leaving a comment.

Ohh these smoothies look good. And yes, I think we all could do with some sunshine now. Had it with the winters. :/
Sweet and Savoury Pursuits says
Thanks. I know the winter was definitely too long and cold!

That is gorgeous! Sunshine in a cup indeed. Your tea towel matches the stripey straws, that is way cute! Thanks for bringing drinkable sunshine to Fiesta Friday! Now if only I can get Patty's sunshine and your smoothie through the phone screen... 😀
Sweet and Savoury Pursuits says

Your smoothie sounds so refreshing, Fida! Very tropical and summer-y! 😀
Sweet and Savoury Pursuits says
Thanks Patty! I only wish I could bring summer on a bit quicker with this smoothie, I'm afraid it hasn't even started to feel like spring here 🙁
Patty Nguyen says
It felt like summer here in CA last week! I was dripping sweat for two days straight. We were in the 90s! Luckily we'll be back in the 70s this week. Want me to send you some of my sunshine?? 😀
Sweet and Savoury Pursuits says
Oh, my goodness, I think the warmest it's been so far here in the National Capital Area of Canada was 17C. Yes, please send me some of your sunshine!!!
Patty Nguyen says
That's not very warm at all! Yikes! Sending our sunshine your way right now! 🙂
