Drinks By Cage: New Happiness :P

It's tasty.
It's cool.
It's a new smoothie!

Yum.

≈2 Cups Frozen Fruit (I used Festival Blend Fruit Mix)
1/4 Cup Margarita Mix (I used the green kind)
1 Cup Hawaiian Fruit Punch

Blend all together, and be sure to stir out the air bubbles as needed. Blend for more than you expect - go for just a bit more viscous than a Slurpee :P

Super energy from massive sugar intake! Yaaaaaaaaaay!!! :D:D:D

Festival Blend Fruit

Throughout many of my Smoothie recipes, I like to use Festival Blend Fruit, found in a 6 lb bag in the frozen section of Costco! There are frozen chunks of papaya, pineapple, strawberry, and mango, all together and ready to use! It's perfect for smoothies, especially if you want that awesome tropical taste.
Enjoy!
