Tangy and tropical, with juicy pineapple, perfumed passion fruit and a fresh, slightly peppery green finish.
Pineapple and passion fruit both combine sweetness with a pronounced acidity, so together they taste bright and intensely tropical. Pineapple is a good source of vitamin C, and passion fruit adds a floral perfume and edible seeds. Half a banana makes the texture smoother, while mint and a small amount of rocket add a subtle herbal, peppery note.
The original recipe listed no pineapple despite its name; this version adds it, as the title promises. It is a light, refreshing smoothie for a warm morning or afternoon.
Yes, it contains only fruit, herbs and water.
Yes, it makes the smoothie colder and thicker.
A little rocket adds a fresh, peppery contrast to the sweet fruit. You can skip it without changing the recipe much.
