The key is putting slightly more pineapples than strawberries, and because the fruit is frozen you dont need ice. Tastes great and very healthy!!

Ingredients:

  • 2 1/2 to 3 cups of Welch’s Strawberry Breeze Juice (or fill blender little less than half way full)
  • 2 1/2 hand fulls of Dole’s frozen pineapples
  • 1 1/2 to 2 hand fulls of Dole’s frozen whole strawberries
  • 3 squirts of clover honey

Preparation:
Mix in blender on high for a few seconds. Serves 2 large cups.
