STRAWBERRY COLADA SMOOTHIE
I think it is the best time of year for smoothies because there’s such an abundance of good fresh fruit, and better yet, at great prices.
This Strawberry Colada Smoothie is perfect for hot or warm weather, it offers that flavor that reminds of you being in the tropics, soaking up the sun on a warm sandy beach somewhere. Well you should, starting with these nutritious smoothies! Coconut and strawberries just go together, it’s one of those pairings that was meant to be.
