Smoothie a Day – Fuze Inspired
Talk about a wonderful tropical treat for me this morning! I absolutely loved this smoothie. I wasn’t really trying to go for a tropical taste but I kinda had to. I didn’t want to give up on Fuze and I didn’t want to add any yogurt for all you non-yogurt lovers. I’m so happy that I didn’t give up on Fuze and that I stuck with my guns and tried it again. This time, being the smart girl that I am, I checked the ingredients. Any bottle that said “sucralose” got put back and I moved on. Thank you Kelly for informing me that there were more Fuze drinks than just the slenderize line.
Today’s smoothie ingredients include the following:
1 medium banana, 1/2 cup pineapple tidbits, 3/4 cup canned sliced peaches, roughly 10 ounces of Orange Mango Fuze and 3/4 cup crushed ice.
My blender was starting to make a funny noise like it was working way way waaaaay too hard towards the end of the blending process so I had to turn it off a little earlier than I normally would have. I’m gonna have to do a little investigating because there is absolutely no reason why this blender should already be biting the dust!
So the consistency wasn’t exactly perfect but it was darn near close. I think I should have added 1/4 cup more crushed ice and that might have done the trick. Well, that and a fully functioning blender! The pineapple was a little strong. Had I been aimed for a tropical tasting smoothie, perfect, but since I wasn’t… it kinda threw me off guard. But do not mistake that for a gross tasting smoothie. Because it wasn’t! It was delicious!

This one sounds delicious. What a nice surprise for you to start the day with a tropical drink. I still haven’t tried Fuze but I’m going to check out the labels when I pick one. Bummer about your blender!
That is one serious smoothie concoction! I love mango and banana smoothies, I’ve also tried pineapple with orange. But a smoothie with all these flavors together? Well, this is going to be a first for me. I can’t wait to try this one. Thanks for sharing this by the way.
That is one of my fav. fuze flavors. And my blender makes a weird noise every once in awhile. I don’t like those days cause I end up with chunks of ice in my smoothie. Hope your blender is back to normal for your next smoothie : ))
