Pina colada smoothie
You can always count on a tropical pina colada to cool you down on a hot summer day. Try it as a smoothie for a cool and icy drink that’ll really knock your socks off! This is the family-friendly version, but if you’re looking for a more adult-friendly drink, add a shot (or two!) of rum.
There are lots of ways to wear white eyeshadow. For the most flattering summer look, use your finger to apply a tiny bit on the inner corner of your eyelid and along your lower lash line. It’s just a little bit of color, but it’s enough to make you glow and your eyes really pop.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh pineapple, chunked
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 banana
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/2 cup ice cubes
- Pineapple chunks for garnish (optional)
Directions:
- Put the pineapple chunks, coconut milk, banana, honey and ice in a blender and puree until smooth.
- Pour into glasses and garnish with pineapple chunks, if desired.
