Tropical Vacation Smoothie

This tasty smoothie makes me dream about lying on a beach in the Islands. The dates give is a natural sweetness. The strawberries make it a little bit tart. It tastes like sunshine in a glass. This recipe makes enough for two large smoothies - Enjoy!


Ingredients:
1 cup liquid (I used 1/2 cup almond milk & 1/2 cup water)
2 ripe bananas, fresh or frozen
2 orangesT, peeled
1 heaping cup of pineapple, fresh or frozen
1 cup strawberries, fresh or frozen
1 or 2 dates, pitted
1 inch nub of fresh ginger, peeled
1/2 tsp vanilla, optional
handful of ice cubes
unsweetened coconut, optional

Blend all ingredients, except coconut, in a high speed blender. Let ingredients run through two cycles of blending to make sure smoothie is smooth. Pour into glasses. Garnish with a sprinkle of unsweetened coconut, if desired. Drink immediately.
