Amazing, healthy smoothie that will make you feel like you are sitting on the beach and feeling the sea breeze! This smoothie is made with coconut milk, banana, key lime and pineapple yogurt.

Want to feel the tropics at breakfast time?

You should try one of these tropical breakfast smoothies. If you close your eyes and take a sip, you can feel the beach and hear the waves. It’s a magic trick created by the amazing flavor of this smoothie.

I’ve been teasing myself with this tasty breakfast for awhile. But, a week from today, I will actually be sitting by the pool, in the middle of the ocean with tropical breeze in my hair and sipping on something coconutty. I’m going on a vacation to the paradise but I feel like I was already there while drinking my smoothie. I wonder if I can get someone to make me my smoothie on the boat?

Well, whether they can or not, I will make it again and again after I come back and remind myself of the good times with each sip.

The second I took a sip of this Creamy Tropical Smoothie, I swear I smelled ocean and felt the breeze. Definitely made me wish I was sitting on the beach. So much delightful coconut flavor mixed with pineapple, banana and a touch of citrus from key lime zest. Heaven!
