Mango Pine-Orange Smoothie
If you are looking for a fresh, delicious, dairy free smoothie, that tastes amazing, this is it.
Now I didn't make this because it is dairy free, as we quite like milk/yoghurt based smoothies in our house, I just wanted to try something different for my kids. This was perfect on a warm afternoon. This has the consistency of a smoothie without the yoghurt/ice cream to thicken it up. It tastes thick and just so fresh and delicious. No added sugar, just the three fruits for flavour.
If your blender isn't big enough, you can make this in two batches.
I say it serves 2-3 as it depends on what glass size you use.
This I made for the kids, however, I loved it as is to, but if you like you can add 1/2 cup golden rum to it to make it an adult smoothie.
