Banana Passion Fruit Smoothie with Apple
Bright and tangy, with exotic passion fruit aroma, fresh apple and a soft banana body.
Passion fruit (maracuja) is loved for its intensely aromatic pulp, which is sour and sweet at the same time. The black seeds are edible and give the smoothie tiny crunchy specks; if you prefer it smooth, press the pulp through a sieve. Apples bring freshness and fibre, and banana adds creaminess so the drink stays balanced. It is a light, fruity smoothie for breakfast or a quick afternoon refresher.
Yes, they are edible. Strain the pulp if you prefer a completely smooth drink.
A sweet, crisp red apple such as Gala or Braeburn balances the passion fruit well.
Yes, it contains only fruit, juice and water.
