This is another juice I adore, not just because it tastes and
looks good, but because it is full of so many amazing ingredients with
incredible health benefits. Surely that is reason enough for you to rush to
your kitchen and whip one of these up- I’ve had 3 today already!
This was a happy discovery that came about simply because these
were the fruit I had to hand one day and I’ve been making it since.

| Pineapple, blueberries and strawberries. Yum! |
Ingredients (makes one large juice)
1 cup of orange juice (freshly squeezed or bought)
1/2 cup of pineapple diced quite small
1/3 cup of blueberries
1/3 cup of strawberries
1tsp coconut oil
A few mint leaves
 |
| Juicy pineapple. |
 |
| Fresh strawberries. |
 |
| Nutritious blueberries |
Method
Blend everything together using a stick blender or regular
blender and serve. Easy! You can make it as thick or smooth as you like.
(For a super smooth version with no pineapple pulp, use a juicer
to extract the juice from the pineapple before blending everything in a
blender. For this you don’t need to dice the pineapple.)
