Juicy nectarine and tangy pineapple give this smoothie a sunny, fruity character. Half a banana makes it smooth and a little creamier.
Garnish: Pineapple wedge · Ice: Served up, no ice
Sweet and fruity, with juicy nectarine, tangy pineapple and a soft banana finish.
Nectarines are at their best in summer, when their flesh is soft, juicy and fragrant. Combined with pineapple, which adds sweetness, acidity and vitamin C, they create a bright, tropical tasting smoothie. Half a banana provides body, so water is enough as the liquid.
The smoothie is light enough for a hot afternoon but also works as part of breakfast. Outside the nectarine season, frozen peach slices are a good replacement and make the drink thicker.
