I made this smoothie back around Easter time and totally forgot to post about it.  It is a delightful smoothie that you will sure to love.  Dreams of tradewinds and palm trees come to mind when tasting this tropical flavored smoothie.  The flavors of coconut milk, banana, strawberries and pineapple mixed together make the most luscious smoothie.

Perfect for breakfast or as a midday snack, this smoothie hits the spot and has you dreaming you were somewhere else.

Enjoy!
