Piña Colada and Peach Smoothies

 

Piña Colada Smoothie

Ingredients:

• 1 small pineapple or 1/2 a medium pineapple
• 1 can coconut milk
• 1 cup pineapple juice
• pinch nutmeg as optional garnish

Directions:

1. Cut off the top of the pineapple with the leaves and slice the pineapple in half, then cut away the outer rind and if the core is hard, then cut it away also.
2. Cut the pineapple into bite sized pieces so it is easier for the blender to puree.
3. Then repeat this for the other half of the pineapple if it is a small one.
4. Place the pineapple in a blender.
5. Add the pineapple juice and coconut milk and blend to a smooth consistency.
6. Taste the smoothie. We prefer smoothies that are not overly sweet, so it was fine this way. If you wish a sweeter smoothie you could add a bit of agave syrup.
7. We sprinkled the top of the smoothies with just a touch of nutmeg.
