A tropical smoothie that's perfect for a hot summer day. The kiwi and pineapple provide a tart and sweet balance, while the coconut water and lime juice add a refreshing twist.
This smoothie was inspired by a trip to Hawaii, where I was lucky enough to experience the flavors of fresh kiwi and pineapple. I wanted to create a smoothie that would capture the essence of that tropical paradise, and this is what I came up with. It's a refreshing and delicious way to start your day or cool down on a hot afternoon.
