PINEAPPLE MANGO SMOOTHIE-
The pineapple with mangoes, almond milk, yogurt, and honey blended together have so much flavor and taste. Though you can skip the ice, I love the extra coolness the ice gives the drink on a hot day.
The drink is a great and easy substitute for snacks that are unhealthy most of the time.
Is a Pineapple Mango Smoothie healthy? Absolutely! It’s packed with vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and helps boost the immune system.
