A smoothie is a beverage made from blended fruit (and sometimes vegetables), often enriched with other ingredients such as yogurt, milk, ice, honey, seeds, or protein powder. It is characterized by a thick, creamy consistency and is usually consumed cold.
This particular smoothie is a refreshing and nutritious drink, particularly suitable for summer thanks to its tropical ingredients and sweet, fruity flavor.

Mango and Pineapple Smoothie Recipe
Start the preparation of the mango and pineapple smoothie with the fruit.
Peel the mango and cut it in half.
Remove the central seed and dice it.
Also clean the pineapple from its skin and cut it into cubes.
Place the fruit on a plate or in a bowl covered with parchment paper.
Put them in the freezer for at least 2 hours.
Once frozen, transfer the fruit into the blender jar.
Also add the soy beverage into the blender.
If the fruit is sweet enough, there’s no need to sweeten it, otherwise add sugar, honey, maple syrup… or generally the sweetener you usually use.
Blend everything until you get a fairly thick smoothie.
If the consistency is too solid, add a bit more soy beverage.
Transfer the mango and pineapple smoothie into glasses or bottles and drink it immediately.

Yes, but as it is preserved in syrup, the drink will be much sweeter.
