Pineapple Apple Lemon Smoothie Recipe

 This refreshing, vitamin-packed smoothie is perfect for starting your day with a burst of energy. Combining the tropical sweetness of pineapple, the crispness of apple, and the zesty tang of lemon, this drink not only tastes delicious but also provides a great dose of vitamin C, antioxidants, and fiber.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks – Pineapple adds natural sweetness and is packed with vitamin C and bromelain, which aids digestion.

• 1 red apple, cored and chopped – Apples provide fiber, help regulate blood sugar levels, and contribute to a smooth texture.

• Juice of 1 lemon – Lemon enhances the flavor with a bright, citrusy kick and boosts immunity with its high vitamin C content.

• 1/2 cup cold water or ice cubes (optional) – Adding water or ice helps adjust the consistency, making the smoothie more hydrating and refreshing.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the ingredients – Core and chop the apple, cut fresh pineapple into chunks, and squeeze the juice from one lemon.

2. Blend the base – Add the pineapple chunks, apple pieces, and lemon juice to a blender.

3. Blend until smooth – Process the mixture on high speed until everything is fully combined and reaches a creamy consistency.

4. Adjust texture – If you prefer a thinner smoothie, add 1/2 cup of cold water or a few ice cubes and blend again until smooth.

5. Serve immediately – Pour the smoothie into a glass and enjoy it fresh for the best taste and nutrient retention.

Tips & Variations:

• Want it sweeter? Add a teaspoon of honey or a ripe banana for extra natural sweetness.

• Boost the nutrients by adding a handful of spinach or kale for extra fiber, iron, and vitamins.

• For a creamier texture, blend in a small amount of Greek yogurt or unsweetened almond milk.

• Chill it beforehand by using frozen pineapple chunks or refrigerating the apple for a colder, more refreshing smoothie.
