Minty Cantopeachy Smoothie

When I was cleaning out the refrigerator and found a half of cantaloupe and thought myself why not to make for a smoothie with that!

Cantaloupe contains Vitamin A and C along with fresh peaches that I had pulled out from the tree in my backyard and fresh mint leaves that I handpicked from the ground.

It's an interesting taste, to admit that! It came out with beautiful spark colors of green, red and orange as you can see it on the picture on the left side. It's not very sweet like other smoothies usually are. It's a well-balanced and it's good for people who are not too crazy for sweetnesses but it comes with lots of blurst of MINTY into your mouth YUM.

I had spiked some Bacardi Rum into mine and it tastes so GOOD! My girls LOVED that smoothies (of course without that rum)- I was so surprised :D.

Ingredients:

Half of cantaloupe- scoop out from the skin and chopped into pieces
Some of fresh mint leaves
10 small peaches or 5 large peaches, pitted and chopped into pieces

Put it into a large ziplock bag and freeze it until it's all ready for making smoothie

Dump it into the blender and you can even add either way:
1 cup of pineapple juice
1 cup of frozen pineapple chunks

Blend it until smooth. If it gets too thick, you can thin it out a little bit by slow adding the pineapple juice.

You can even add Bacardi rum into yours to make it a summery drink. Just a little bit of it to taste.. If you need more then add little bit more.

Enjoy it!
