SUNDAY MORNING TROPICAL SMOOTHIE




Okay, so I made it on a Saturday -- with the time change, I want to get ahead of the game.



Recipe for a tropical  treat drink:

1 whole, fresh pineapple
2 kiwis
2 bananas
1 pomegranate
2/3 fresh coconut
1 lime

PREP:
Drain the coconut, by punching holes in two of the eyes and letting juice drain out.
Break the coconut with a hammer, and pull the flesh away from the shell
Peel the kiwis and slice the pineapple,
Peel the bananas






 I added the lime as an afterthought. It keeps the juice from turning dark.



JUICING 


In the juice extractor, juice the pineapple and coconut.

Juice the pomegrate and lime on an orange juice machine
Combine the pomegranate, pineapple and coconut, bananas, and kiwis in a blender. Blend until smooth.  Ice is optional.




This juice has a lot of natural sugars, so use it in moderation if you are trying to restrict sugar intake.
