Yesterday, I told you all about my new sun-brella, so today I thought I would share an umbrella of a different kind! One of the things I loved most about our Hawaiian holiday was all the fresh fruit, and this island-inspired smoothie is deliciously refreshing, no matter where you are.

This recipe makes enough for at least 4 servings.

Author Renée B. ♥ The Good Hearted Woman

Ingredients

1 cup pineapple juice
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 13.5 oz can coconut milk
2 mangoes peeled, seeded and cubed
1/2 ripe banana frozen
1 1/2 cups ice cubes
2-3 tablespoons sugar to taste
1/8 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Beginning with pineapple juice, layer ingredients in blender in order. Puree until smooth. Serve in chilled glasses, and garnish with fresh mint (and a little umbrella if you want to get fancy).

Tip: When your bananas get a little too ripe, peel them and put them in the freezer. Great for just about any smoothie, they both add flavor and cut down on the need for additional sweeteners.

  I kept the basic recipe kid-friendly, but a little rum certainly wouldn’t hurt!

All that needs saying really is “YUM!!!” and “pinning for later.”
So, both of those things.
