How to Make a Tropical Carrot Smoothie
Pour the carrot juice into a blender first. This helps the frozen fruit blend more smoothly.
Add the frozen pineapple, frozen mango, and sliced kiwi to the blender.
Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Stop and scrape down the sides if needed.
Taste and adjust if desired, then pour into glasses and serve immediately while fresh and cold.
Helpful Tips for Best Results
Use frozen fruit instead of fresh to create a thick, chilled smoothie without needing ice.
Carrot juice is usually found in the refrigerated produce section. If unavailable, you can make your own by blending chopped carrots with water and straining through a fine cloth.
For extra creaminess, add half a frozen banana.
A small piece of fresh ginger can be added for a subtle zing and added freshness.
This smoothie is best enjoyed right after blending for the best flavor and texture.
Serving Ideas
Serve this smoothie on its own for a light breakfast or pair it with toast, muffins, or pancakes for a more filling meal. It also works well as a refreshing afternoon drink on warm day.
