My awesome smoothie maker I purchased last summer has been a blessing in disguise. We’ve created smoothies, slushes, ice cream drinks, shakes and so much more. We’ve experimented with different fruits and combination’s, flavors and syrups and just had a ton of fun.

One of my favorite drinks we created is what we call the Sunny Hawaiian Smoothie because it reminds us of a hot summer day in Hawaii. It can be enjoyed anytime of year whenever you need a little boost of the tropics or summer.

We’ve served this twice at two different Luau’s we’ve hosted and it is always a big hit. You simply cannot go wrong with this Sunny Hawaiian Smoothie.

Sunny Hawaiian Smoothie

1 c. freshly squeezed orange juice
1 can (10oz) of crushed pineapple with juice
2 med. bananas
1 8oz. carton plain or vanilla yogurt (We found coconut cream yogurt once and tried it and yeah… wish I could buy it in big size because it was amazing!! Don’t be afraid to try other flavors)
1 c. ice
splash of grenadine syrup for color, if desired

Add the ice, pineapple and bananas in a blender; process until smooth. Add the orange juice and yogurt and blend. Pour into glasses, and add a splash of grenadine syrup for color if desired. Serve immediately. You can garnish the side of the glass with a pineapple slice for decoration.

NOTE: You can use more or less of any of the fruit ingredients – just changes up the flavor, makes one more prominent than another, etc. Enjoy this recipe!
