Chilling poolside at a sunny tropical resort with a cold drink in hand is what I imagined when I sipped this Banana Coconut Smoothie!
Ah, that was a nice feeling! And much better than thinking about my “stuff to do” list.
Things got even better when I started to imagine infusing this cold smoothie with Malibu Rum.
I’ll save that idea for the weekend!
For now I’m sticking with this Malibu-free version as way to give my tired mid-week mind a quick escape to the tropics.
You never know…it might just do the same for you!
Cheers!
