INSTRUCTIONS
Preparation
Wash the strawberries by running them under cold water, drain, then slice the leaves off the strawberries. Measure 10 oz of them, place in a container, and keep it in the freezer overnight.
Cut and remove both the crown and the bottom of the pineapple. Slice the skin away from top to bottom and remove any brown 'eyes' on the fruit.
Cut the pineapple in half lengthways and then into wedges. Slice away the tough central core and chop each wedge into bite-sized chunks. Measure 6 oz pineapple into a container and keep it in the freezer overnight.
Feed the pineapple chunks through a juicer and collect the juice. You’ll need ½ cup pineapple juice for this smoothie recipe.
Instructions
Combine 2 cups ice, 10 oz frozen strawberries, 6 oz frozen pineapple, 1 cup milk, 1/2 cup pineapple juice, 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt, and sugar to your taste but no more than 3 tbsp in a blender.
Blend at high speed in 20 - 30 seconds until the smoothie is smooth and creamy.
Pour the smoothie into serving glasses.
Garnish with mint leaves and serve this strawberry pineapple smoothie cold.
