We whipped up this dreamy Dreamy Pineapple Lime Smoothie in parternship with Horizon Organic + had a little backyard fun with the boys. Gosh, we love their products—from mac-n-cheese, cheese crackers, and their milk–regulars at our house. Their organic milk + a little cream is the magic in this smoothie that makes it so000 creamy and good!
Pineapple, banana, fresh lime…..just screaming summer. Speaking of summer, we welcomed a new member to the family for some summer fun–the great white Swan–still needs a name.
It turns out, you don’t even need a pool OR water to have fun with a giant pool floatie. We have big plans to bring him to the beach with us, but so far the boys are having a blast bouncing around on him, sipping pineapple smoothies from fruit cups likes kings I tell ya.
The good life…..
You can use a variety of fruit for the fruit cups- pineapple, watermelon, cantaloupe, coconut. They are kind of a pain (in my opinion) to hallow out, but so cute for summer and that feeling of being in a tropical paradise!
(Even when you’re just hanging in your backyard–in the middle of June gloom)
I hope you love these as much as we do!
Pineapple Lime Smoothies
Yield 4
This creamy Pineapple Lime Smoothie is the perfect summer treat!
Ingredients
1 pineapple, cut into chunks and frozen
2 bananas, sliced and frozen
2 cups Horizon Organic Milk
1 tbsp Horizon Organic Whipping Cream
2 limes
1-2 tbs honey
Instructions
Prep the fruit:
If you want to use the pineapple as cups for the smoothie, cut the stem off of the top of the pineapple, then cut the pineapple in half. Scoop the fruit out of each half and cut into chunks. Place the fruit in a zip-lock bag and freeze overnight. Place the pineapple shells in a ziplock bag and store in the fridge until ready to use.
Peel and cut the bananas into chunks, place in a ziplock bag and freeze overnight.
{If you want to make your life easier--just use 1 1/2-2 cups frozen pineapple and 2 frozen bananas, and use normal cups for serving!}
Make the smoothie:
Place the frozen pineapple chunks, bananas, milk, cream, lime juice, lime zest, and honey in a powerful blender and blend until smooth and creamy.
Pour into cups and top with a little more lime zest!
