We all wish we could be on a beach in Hawaii, laying back in a chair under a palm tree, watching the surfers, and sipping a cold beverage..... now back to reality. But, I've got a smoothie here that will take you away to that very place in your mind as you sip it! We love this smoothie all summer long. Just add a small umbrella and you'll feel like you're on vacation!
Serves 4
2 cups crushed ice
4 oz. (1/3 can) frozen orange juice concentrate
4 oz. (1/3 can) frozen pineapple juice concentrate
1 cup water
1 1/2 cups vanilla ice cream
1/2 teaspoon coconut extract
Add all ingredients to a blender. Pulse a few times, then blend until smooth. Serve immediately.
Step-by-step tutorial:
Gather your ingredients. You will need vanilla ice cream, orange juice concentrate, pineapple juice concentrate, coconut extract, crushed ice and water (not pictured).
In a blender, add 2 cups crushed ice, 1 cup water, 4 oz. orange juice concentrate, 4 oz. pineapple juice concentrate, 1 1/2 cups vanilla ice cream (I just eyeball it), and 1/2 teaspoon coconut extract. Blend until smooth and ice is completely crushed.
Serve immediately with little umbrellas.
This smoothie is a favorite around here!
