April 27, 2021April 16, 2025

Tell us your favourite fruit and we’ll tell you the perfect smoothie for you

As we grow up, we develop different tastes in food, our palate changes and we start to like foods that we may not have eaten before, and vice versa. When we were kids, we may have liked sweeter flavours, but now we like stronger flavours.

As they say, to each their own, and for each flavour there’s… Life Smoothies! 😉 Meaning in our range we have smoothies for all tastes. And if not, take a look at our list of fruits, you’re sure to find your favourite smoothie by the time you’ve finished reading.

Strawberry – Strawberry Split

This fruit is a classic, and we believe it is a great favourite among children and adults alike. Luckily, we can enjoy it all year round thanks to our IQF system, we pick the strawberries, prepare them and flash freeze them, so they retain their nutritional properties and their flavour.

This smoothie includes strawberries, banana, papaya and cherry; so, if you are a big lover of this fruit… congratulations! You’ve found your perfect smoothie 😊

Banana – Acai Kick

Bananas, the so-called ‘fruit of love’, are also in many of our smoothies. It is a very versatile and thickening fruit, which makes for a fuller smoothie. So, if this is your favourite fruit, one of your perfect smoothie options may very well be our Acai Kick. In this fun smoothie, you’ll also find mango, acai (hence the name) and blueberry, which gives the smoothie its distinct colour.

The Acai Kick is a very filling smoothie that is also very rich in nutrients.

Mango – Mango Paradise

This paradise-flavoured smoothie contains not only mango, but also tropical flavours such as pineapple and passion fruit. This smoothie is perfect to recover your strength or to cool down on hot days. And no wonder there are so many lovers of this superfood, because the mango is one of the most nutritious and vitamin-packed fruits that mother nature has given us. If it wasn’t your favourite fruit before, try our smoothie and it will soon be one of them!

Melon – Caribbean Kiss

This smoothie not only has a great name, but it’s also beautiful on the outside and on the inside. It is a journey for the senses to the Caribbean, because in addition to melon, you can enjoy the flavour of mango and strawberries, which are what give it its unique touch of colour.

Coconut – Tropi Colada

Drink this smoothie and feel like you’re on holiday. Coconut lovers will be amazed by the taste of the Tropi Colada, because it combines other delicious fruits such as pineapple or banana. And if you like Piña Colada drinks, you’re in luck, because our Tropi Colada smoothie is much healthier, alcohol-free and all natural ingredients. It’s refreshing, hydrating and it’s good for you, all at the same time.

Raspberries – Raspberry Love

Without a doubt, this smoothie is one of our favourites. This delicious little fruit gives an incredible flavour to your smoothies, and if you combine it with blueberry and banana, it’s sure to become one of your favourites too. So, look no further, if you are a fan of berries this is the smoothie for you.

Pineapple – Green Machine

This fruit features in several of our smoothies, but the Green Machine is perfect for pineapple lovers and for the more adventurous. It combines spinach, celery, broccoli and also mango, an explosion of nutrients that makes this smoothie bring out the best in you.

As you can see, we all have a favourite ‘nature’s candy’, and if you’ve made it this far, I’m sure you now have a favourite smoothie too. Will you tell us what it is? 😉

Travel through the flavours of our smoothies, discover the destinations

A photo, a book, a dream… There are many things that can help us travel without physically moving. But we cannot forget the intense flavours, those that we enjoy with every sip and that we never want to end, such as our smoothies.

Eating foods that we love is a pleasure for our senses, and if you also feel like you are taking care of yourself, the pleasure multiplies. Our smoothies contain intense, delicious flavours that once you try them you will wish they would never end. They are a journey for the senses. Have you already experienced this?

If you have already tried them, you may agree with the list we will share with you below, because the flavours of our smoothies can also help you travel around the world. Ready to take off!

Mango Paradise will take you to India

As its name suggests, our smoothie will take you to a true paradise full of colours and flavours: India. Mango is one of the main fruits in our smoothie, and nowadays there are many varieties of this fruit around the world, but it originates from Asia.

Even though the rest of the ingredients, such as pineapple and passion fruit, are originally from Brazil, the flavour and colour of our smoothie takes us to this great country. It reminds us of the Akshardham Temple located in the capital, New Delhi, for its orange colour so characteristic of mangoes. The temple is also a symbol of peace, one of the many sensations you will feel when enjoying your Mango Paradise.

Next stop… Puerto Rico with Tropi Colada

Our Tropi Colada smoothie is a super healthy option that can rival the best cocktails you can enjoy in the Caribbean islands. The freshness you will feel when drinking it, and the flavour of pineapple, coconut and banana, will make an incredible contrast that will help cool down its warm tropical climate.

Puerto Rico is an island full of colour and life, but its beaches are perhaps one of its greatest attractions; its crystal-clear waters, its palm trees, and, above all, its fine white sand. It is perhaps this nuance that most reminds us of this dream destination and is perfect to enjoy in summer.

Fly to Brazil with our Acai Kick

Of course, the açai is a berry native to Brazil, rich in nutrients and antioxidants, and is also considered an anti-aging food. So, you will never be too old to travel to Brazil. 😉

The colour of our Acai Kick smoothie reminds us of the wild flora so common in the Amazon, one of the most vibrant regions on the planet. Also, together with the other fruits in this smoothie, which are banana, mango and blueberry, they make this smoothie a real journey; and when you taste it, your senses will remember it forever.

Want to visit Greece? Try our Raspberry Love

Apparently raspberries originated from Greece, and it is one of the main fruits you will find in our Raspberry Love smoothie. You could say that our smoothie is a drink of the gods because of the numerous nutrients in its fruits: blueberry, banana and the above-mentioned raspberry.

The red colour of the raspberries even makes us think of the goddess Aphrodite, goddess of beauty and love, because this fruit is rich in antioxidants and great for your skin. Our Raspberry Love is a temple dedicated to this Greek goddess.

As you can see, you don’t need to leave home to travel around the world. All you need is a good sense of taste, a bit of imagination and an open mind; the flavours of our smoothies will do the rest. 😉

Now that you know a little more about them, discover the perfect smoothie for your summer.

Chromotherapy with your smoothies, experience full colour

Have you ever heard of chromotherapy with food? Our smoothies, as well as being delicious and full of nutrients, are a pleasure to look at because they are full of colour and life. So, you can practice some chromotherapy with our smoothies, and it will be another perfectly unique way to take care of yourself.

Chromotherapy is about taking care of yourself by focusing on the pigments that give food some colour, such as in this case fruit and vegetables, because they have a protective function for the body. But also, colours produce in us sensations that help our body and mind, by influencing our mood and feelings.

This technique has been studied in psychology and can be applied in other fields, for example, in marketing, in film and even in decorating spaces, looking for different environments and sensations.

Want to discover what each colour of our smoothies hides? Then read on 😊

Tropi Colada: White or light colours

In general, the colour white is said to bring light, transparency, peace and harmony; but it also brings security and honesty. It is a positive and healthy colour, as there are many foods that are white on the inside or outside and are delicious and rich in potassium and antioxidants.

White is not the absence of colour, but in fact it has about 67 different shades. And although our Tropi Colada smoothie is not completely white, it contains foods such as coconut and banana, which tend to be light foods, so it falls within this colour and its qualities.

The coconut in our Tropi Colada is a fruit with antioxidant properties, regulates blood pressure and is rich in fibre and minerals. The banana also has high nutritional properties, which makes this smoothie a great choice to start taking care of yourself. 😉

Green Machine: Green colour

The colour green represents nature and hope, but it is also related to health. Many foods, especially vegetables, are green, and are generally rich in potassium, vitamins and folic acid.

In our case, the Green Machine smoothie, is made with spinach, celery and broccoli, which is what gives it its green colour and makes it a nutritionally super smoothie.

Strawberry Split: Red colour

The colour red represents energy, warmth and has a life-giving component, because it is the colour of our blood. Many foods also contain this natural pigment because they are rich in antioxidants and help circulation, memory and play an important role in protecting the skin.

Our Strawberry Split smoothie has this reddish colour due to the strawberries, cherries and papaya in it. Together with banana, they make this smoothie delicious and even addictive. That’s why the colour red is also a symbol of caution, because once you try our smoothie you won’t want to stop drinking it, you’ll love it! 😉

Acai Kick and Raspberry Love: Purple colour

This colour is a symbol of elegance and spirituality, as well as luxury. It is related to the world of dreams, imagination and promotes creativity. Eating foods of this colour, such as blueberries, helps anti-ageing, which is perhaps why it is so widely used in children’s food.

Our Acai Kick and Raspberry Love smoothies have such a characteristic colour thanks to this small fruit rich in properties. The height of luxury! 😉

Mango Paradise and Caribbean Kiss: Orange and yellow colours

These colours are mainly found in citrus fruits and symbolise fun and energy. Fruits such as mango, melon and pineapple in our smoothies are rich in vitamins and minerals, which will fill you with the strength and energy to start the day right.

Now that you know the meaning behind the colours, discover which is your favourite fruit and we’ll tell you the perfect smoothie for you.

Any time is a good time for a smoothie or a shake!

Now that the Life Smoothies family has grown, you can plan the perfect time to enjoy our flavours, because they are for all kinds of occasions. You just need to choose between a smoothie or a shake… we know it’s a tough decision! That’s why, in this post, we’ll tell you about the perfect times to enjoy them whatever your decision is.

Throughout the day, we enjoy different occasions that require more or less energy for different people. For example, there are people who, when they get out of bed, prefer to wait for breakfast or there are people who cannot wait and need to eat as if it were a ritual. Whatever type of person you are, you’ll find your ideal smoothie or shake here, take note!

Time to take care of yourself

We know that there are days that are more complicated when everything is twice as hard. The important thing is not to lose perseverance and to find the energy to go to the gym or enjoy your favourite sport to stay active.

For this type of occasion we recommend, without a doubt, our Green Machine smoothie. Many of you surely already know it, but for those of you who are new to Life Smoothies, you should know that it’s like that extra battery when you’re running on empty, either before exercise or when you’ve just finished, for example. It is also ideal for taking care of yourself because it contains spinach, broccoli, banana, celery, pineapple and mango. It is the perfect natural combination to fill you with energy and vitamins.

On the other hand, there are times when we also want to continue taking care of ourselves without losing good habits. Dark chocolate has many properties, but if we combine it with cherry… doesn’t that sound delicious? That’s why we recommend our Cherry & Chocolate shake for these occasions. It’s that shot of energy that will lift your spirits high from the very start of the day.

Time to work or study

Some days we are more productive than others. That’s why we recommend our Strawberry Split for these times, because the blend of natural ingredients will awaken your senses. Ingredients include strawberries, papaya, cherries and banana. This last fruit will fill you with energy to face the day with the best attitude.

If we had to choose a shake for when you are working or studying, it would definitely be the Strawberry & White Chocolate, especially after a long, busy day. It is like rewarding yourself for all that hard work! 😉

Time to relax

We never get tired of saying that our Tropi Colada is perhaps our most tropical smoothie that will help you escape. So if you need a moment of peace, we recommend this mix of flavours including banana, pineapple and coconut. It will refresh you and fill you with sweetness, but in a healthy way. So all you have to worry about is enjoying a moment to yourself.

Did you know that smelling vanilla has sensory effects that can help you relax? That’s why you need your Vanilla shake. Its aroma is sweet and comforting, which is why it can be found in many baby products. Be mesmerised by its aroma and flavour and let it transport you to your very best dreams.

Time to have fun

Never miss those moments with your family or friends! The truth is, any of our smoothies or shakes are perfect for those special celebrations with your loved ones or simply for that catch-up with friends. But if we had to choose, we’d go for our Acai Kick smoothie. It’s one of the most unique and like those chats with your best friend, this smoothie will give you the pep talk you need.

And if you’re in the mood for a shake, we’d go for the delicious Banana & Salted Caramel. On second thoughts though, it’s so tasty… be careful they don’t end up drinking it!

The five perfect toppings for your smoothies this autumn

With the arrival of autumn and the cold weather, we must keep up with our self-care, but that doesn’t have to mean giving up smoothies or shakes. Just the opposite in fact, it is one of the best ways to eat fruit and vegetables, providing us with the energy we need to study or work.

At Life Smoothies we have a wide variety of flavours in our smoothies and a new range of milkshakes that go perfectly with many different toppings. For example, this autumn we are all about seeds, so in this post we want to tell you about the most popular. They have a high nutritional value, and we will also tell you how they differ from each other and which product from our catalogue they go with best, so that you can enjoy Life Smoothies with the right, totally natural topping.

Chia seeds

These grains provide large amounts of potassium, protein, iron, antioxidants and are an important source of fibre, so they are considered a superfood. Chia seeds are recommended to strengthen bones, muscles and joints and help the body to function properly.

They are perfect for our sweeter smoothies and shakes, but also go well with savoury flavours. They are the perfect accompaniment to our Açai Kick, Green Machine or Raspberry Love.

Pumpkin seeds

Even the seeds of a food such as pumpkin can be used. Once dried and crushed, they can be added to cereals, yoghurts, fruit juices or smoothies. They are best known for their high content of minerals such as iron and magnesium, proteins and antioxidants such as vitamin E.

Nutritionists recommend them for people who want to increase their muscle mass or, on the contrary, lose weight, as they are more filling. They also reduce fatigue, stress and have anti-inflammatory properties. What smoothie would you pair these seeds with? We know: it would be the perfect match for our Caribbean Kiss.

Flax seeds

Flax is a plant with great nutritional properties from which we can use its seeds, that can be eaten whole or ground. Like pumpkin seeds, they are also filling, which makes them ideal for weight loss. They help prevent hair loss and are recommended for skin diseases such as psoriasis. Flax goes well with fruits such as coconut or in green juices, which is why we recommend using these seeds as a topping for our Tropi Colada or Green Machine smoothies.

Sesame seeds

Sesame seeds have left behind their supporting role on industrial hamburger buns and are now seen as a complete food with high doses of vitamin E, B, calcium, as well as their high amount of plant-based protein. Eating sesame seeds boosts memory and increases the ability to concentrate, making it a highly recommended food for students. Apples and bananas are sesame’s best friends. Combine sesame seeds with our Strawberry Split, Tropi Colada or Raspberry Love and enjoy your smoothie!

Poppy seeds

From the inside of the flowers, poppy seeds are an increasingly popular ingredient in smoothies. Aware of their rising popularity, we are happy to support this rise due to their high iron and calcium content. They are also a great source of vitamin A, helping to protect and improve skin in diseases such as psoriasis, atopy and rosacea. It is also highly recommended to include these seeds in diets for athletes or vegetarian or vegan diets: What could be better than adding them to our Green Machine smoothie?

Join the seed revolution with us!

We say goodbye to 2021 with Life Smoothies

As the year comes to an end, it is time to set new goals and resolutions. We leave behind us a 2021, where we thank you for joining us on this journey and for being part of our Life Smoothies family.

Looking back over the year, we have introduced a new line of products, enhancing our brand with our new shakes. A delicious, tasty drink perfect to enjoy with your friends and family. Also, our line of milkshakes provides an extra supply of calcium and a tasty way to drink milk with our range of flavours and fantastic combinations.

From the more traditional flavours like our Vanilla shake, to the extra special combinations with our Strawberry & White Chocolate, Banana & Salted Caramel and Cherry & Chocolate. You can enjoy these varieties throughout the New Year at Life Smoothies. They are suited to those with a sweet tooth and also for those wanting contrasting flavours and originality on the palate.

And why continue to choose us in the new year 2022?

At Life Smoothies we know how important it is to keep a healthy lifestyle and how essential a healthy diet is to achieve this. That is why we believe that shakes are one of the best ways to introduce milk or liquids, such as natural yoghurt, together with fruits and vegetables, into our diet in an enjoyable way. What is your favourite combination?

Shakes join our successful, and already well known, line of smoothies where you can find the most exotic flavours: Acai Kick, with a combination of banana, mango, açai and blueberries, that transports us to paradise. The Caribbean Kiss smoothie, refreshing as a breath of Caribbean air, is a blend of strawberry, mango and melon. And our Mango Paradise smoothie, featuring fruits such as pineapple, mango and passion fruit, which is an absolutely amazing flavour. When it comes to tropical smoothies, we can’t forget our Tropi Colada, with banana, pineapple and coconut; highly recommended, so take note for those of you who haven’t tried it yet!. 😉

Resolutions for 2022

Life Smoothies follows current healthy trends, like green smoothies that contain both fruit and vegetables. That’s why our Green Machine, a combination of spinach, celery, broccoli, mango and pineapple, is a great way to start the year. After the Christmas excesses, it has become our top recommendation, because it is an energising and purifying smoothie with a high content of fibre, vitamins, calcium and nutrients. It’s perfect for making sure we keep our resolution to continue taking care of ourselves in the new year!

We cannot forget the original taste of the Strawberry Split smoothie. The combination of banana and strawberry may sound very typical, but at Life Smoothies we have improved it by adding papaya and cherry. If you haven’t tried it yet, it can be added to your list of resolutions for 2022. 😊

This year, you can’t miss the Raspberry Love either: this smoothie that takes many of us back to our childhood because it combines flavours like raspberry, blueberry and banana. It has been another of the most successful combinations, so if you’re wanting to improve your score this year, this smoothie is a ten out of ten.

Which are your favourite smoothies? Remember that we have many physical points of sale, and you can even order from our website to deliver them to your home. This new year, we will continue to give our best tips on our blog and you can follow us on our social media channels Instagram, Facebook and Twitter so you don’t miss a thing.

Start 2022 full of energy to achieve everything you set out to do with Life Smoothies!

January 24, 2022April 15, 2025

Want to start afresh? 2022 is the year to achieve all your resolutions

Do you have a list of resolutions for 2022? We are really looking forward to this year with great excitement to achieve everything we have set out to do. We will make 2022 a great and healthy year by trying to achieve everything we want to do over the next twelve months.

If you are reluctant to make a list of resolutions for fear of not achieving all your goals, Life Smoothies gives you our list with the best tips and rewards to make the effort worthwhile and face the new year with our optimism.

Get out of our comfort zone

We start with perhaps the most ambitious challenge. Do you want to take your life in a new direction? This is your year! We suggest you start with a new haircut, buy that piece of clothing you didn’t dare buy at the time or treat your taste buds to new flavours. One of these crazy combinations could be our Banana & Salted Caramel Shake. It is a smoothie that mixes sweet and savoury flavours to surprise you and will surely become your favourite of the year. What are you waiting for?

Do more exercise

It is the number 1 resolution on everyone’s lists, and it could not be missing from ours. We know that nowadays it is very difficult to balance social life, work and exercise. But, as we said before, with some effort it will be worth it.

Start small and reward yourself with sweet but healthy treats to make your exercise almost enjoyable. When doing your workout today, just think that when you get home, our delicious Raspberry Love banana and raspberry smoothie will be waiting to sweeten your day. You will definitely want to do it again the next day! It will be the best accompaniment after your exercise routine.

Eat a healthier diet

After the resolution to do more exercise, comes the well-known “this year I’m really going to watch my diet”. We think that the hardest part is to keep it up over time.

The question is: Why view eating a healthy diet as a punishment instead of as a new lifestyle? Try different recipes, fruits and vegetables until you find the winning combination.

We give you the perfect smoothie for your new healthy life. If cooking is not your passion or if you are always busy, we recommend our Green Machine Smoothie. This green smoothie with spinach, broccoli, celery, mango and pineapple will give you the energy you need to face your day and is an appetizing, quick and tasty way to eat the fruit and vegetables that your body needs every day.

Treat ourselves more and take care of ourselves

We often neglect ourselves and we need to take a break once in a while, to stop the whirlwind of life in which we find ourselves to take a step back and think about what we want or what we need. We know the world is moving so quickly that we barely have time to reflect. But at Life Smoothies we have made a commitment to ourselves this year, because for everything else to work we also need to be well. So, this 2022 let’s take care of ourselves and indulge in a few treats that will bring us happiness.

This is much easier while listening to your favourite music in the background and enjoying the delicious Cherry & Chocolate Shake. Who can resist the combination of cherry and chocolate? Don’t miss it because it’s the perfect mix and match.

Start the year off right with Life Smoothies. And do you already have your list of new year’s resolutions ready? Would you add any other resolution? We think that one that cannot be left out is: ‘try the full range of Life Smoothies flavours’ 😉

The best seasonal fruits to go with our smoothies this winter

Do you know the benefits of eating seasonal fruit and vegetables? In this post we recommend you the best fruits and vegetables for this time of the year. They go perfectly with your smoothies and give you an extra boost of vitamins and proteins needed to face the day full of energy.

Life Smoothies products are designed to be enjoyed at any time of the year thanks to how they are made and preserved. They retain all the nutrients and benefits of the foods selected for each of the shakes and smoothies available in our range.

Seasonal fruit and vegetables are delicious and are to be enjoyed at their very best. They also provide our bodies with the nutrients we need to cope with the external elements typical of each season.

If you don’t know which fruits are typical during the first few months of the year, continue reading our post and you will discover which fruits suit our LifeSmoothies best. Ready to discover the first pairings of the year?

Fruits rich in vitamin C

Vitamin C is an essential antioxidant to prevent possible colds and flu during the winter months. So, to ensure a healthy winter and protect our immune system, we recommend eating fruits like oranges, papaya and kiwi and incorporating them into your daily diet. Our fruit smoothies will help you on that goal.

We recommend adding papaya to our Açai Kick Smoothie. Its sweet and mild flavour contrasts with the acidity of the blackberries and perfectly complements the mango, another main ingredient of our refreshing drink.

Orange and kiwi, on the other hand, would be the perfect dance partner to our Caribbean Kiss or Strawberry Split. Strawberry – Kiwi or Strawberry – Orange is an absolute winning combination. You won’t be able to resist.

Dried or dehydrated fruit, ideal for winter

Join us this winter with dried fruit! Adding these fruits to our LifeSmoothies will give them new textures and flavours. These foods also help to boost our body’s energy and keep us warm during winter. Dried figs, dates and sultanas are rich in calcium and iron and are the perfect complement to our meals.

Our exotic Tropi Colada Smoothie is perfect with dates, or you can even experiment and pair any dried fruit with our Mango Paradise Smoothie to add that sweet texture to the mango, pineapple and passion fruit combination. Which dried fruit will you try? Remember that this year, one of the resolutions we talked about in the previous post is to get out of our comfort zone.

Pomegranates and blueberries add a splash of colour to our smoothies

There is no better way to top off our smoothies and shakes than with such delicate, tasty and colourful fruits as pomegranates and blueberries. They also provide many nutrients and antioxidant properties necessary for the winter, such as caring for and moisturising our skin.

Don’t forget, too, that these fruits don’t need any filters and will look perfect on your Instagram pictures. Show off a LifeSmoothies snack or breakfast on social media, you don’t know who might like it and maybe you’ll end up sharing toppings and smoothies together! 😉

And do you already have your perfect combination for this winter? If you have already tried it or want to tell us which pair you have to have, let us know! We are all ears and look forward to meeting new and surprising partners.

Seven Days, Seven Smoothies

Are you one of those people who likes to associate a song or outfit to each day? If so, this article is for you. We will offer you our daily selection of the best healthy smoothies or shakes for every day of the week, because every day is different and we all know that Tuesday and Saturday are nothing alike, right? At Life Smoothies we want to reverse this trend and turn every day into the perfect excuse to choose the perfect smoothie for the day.

Start the Week Feeling Energised with our Açai Kick

Mondays are a difficult day, if not the most difficult day of the week. Getting up early and facing our hectic day-to-day lives requires extra energy, like that provided by açai, a popular fruit in recent years, and blueberries. These small berries are one of the main ingredients in our Açai Kick and are very beneficial: they help take care of the heart, the body and also the mind, thanks to their antioxidant properties. Also, the sweetness and exotic touch of mango and banana make this drink essential to kick off the week in the best way possible.

Tuesday: the Perfect Day to Keep Fit

We can’t think of a better day to drink our Green Machine. This mix of spinach, broccoli, pineapple, mango and celery is a healthy pick-me-up for the second day of the week and your recommended five portions of fruit and veg for the day.

Sweet and White Wednesday

Have you still not discovered our new range of shakes? At Life Smoothies we also have our sweet and tender side. At the halfway point of the week, the best thing to do is to celebrate it with one of our sweetest products: our Strawberry & White Chocolate shake. The best accompaniment to your afternoon snack or to satisfy your mid-morning hunger.

Thursday: Red Fruits Day

Red is the colour of love and passion, and we can’t think of a better drink for the penultimate working day of the week than our Raspberry Love. This smoothie combines a combination of red fruits, energetic, nutritious and appetising, with banana, which provides our body with L-Tryptophan and potassium, increasing our serotonin, known as the happiness hormone. Do you know what increases happiness? Knowing that tomorrow is already Friday. 😉

Tasty and Tropical Friday

For many, the best day of the week. We have a full weekend ahead of us to prepare a host of activities or to unwind after a busy week. Fridays are a time to get together and catch up with friends. At Life Smoothies we give you our reinterpretation of the famous tropical cocktail ‘Piña Colada’. Travel to the best beaches or party nights with the Tropi Colada: coconut, pineapple and banana to enjoy with whomever you want. Cheers!

Saturday V-Day

One of the most recognisable smells and flavours that reminds us of summer and takes us back to happy moments is the star of our Saturdays: vanilla. Saturday is the day of rest, family meals, spontaneous trips and surprising parties, what better than our Vanilla Shake to give us strength and to sweeten our day? You can also share it with your siblings, friends, parents or grandparents to end a large meal and after-dinner conversation full of anecdotes and laughter. Don’t think twice and enjoy some vanilla shakes!

Sunday Treats

We put the cherry on top of the week with our Cherry&Chocolate shake. Treat yourself this Sunday and recharge your batteries to face the week ahead, in front of the TV enjoying a series or film with your shake by your side. Eating chocolate makes us happy, so now you know the best recipe for going to bed on Sunday with a smile on your face.

Now that we have introduced you to our weekly Life Smoothies plan, what do you think?

Let’s talk about pineapples. Do you know all the benefits of this superfruit?

In this article we give you a rundown of all the benefits and properties of the pineapple: one of the top ingredients in our smoothies including the Tropi Colada and the new Beet the Heat. We know that many of you associate eating this tropical and exotic fruit with summer, but this food has a huge number of benefits for our bodies.

Pineapple is known as ananas comosus which was a term coined in Brazil, specifically from the Tupi language, and means “delicious fruit” and its name reflects its resemblance to pinecones. This fruit is a very low-calorie food, extremely rich in vitamins such as vitamin C, A, B1 and even folic acid, it helps our body to produce new cells, has high antioxidant values, protects our immune system and keeps teeth, soft tissue and bones strong. It is practically a superfood.

In terms of minerals, it contains potassium, magnesium and iron in large doses, making it a fruit that helps us to regulate and maintain the correct functioning of our body and has a perfect balance between fibre and calories. What’s more, this tropical delicacy has a great taste that everyone enjoys. It makes our mouths water, literally 😋

Pineapple, great for removing liquids and reducing body volume.

One of the great benefits and properties of the pineapple is its function as a natural diuretic. Adding pineapple to our diet helps us to eliminate toxins and lose volume, and also helps to reduce the annoying cellulite that worries many women and men. Among its functions we can also highlight its anti-inflammatory properties, making it fundamental in reducing abdominal inflammation. Eating pineapple helps us to get a fabulous body inside and out. Do you need any more reasons to add pineapple to your weekly diet?

Keeps your skin smooth, hydrated and glowing

Its antioxidant properties and its high concentration of water are the best ingredient for enviable skin that is hydrated, with no scars or skin ulcers and fights the signs of ageing in our skin keeping it elastic and glowing. Sometimes the best beauty treatments are as simple as drinking water to stay hydrated and eating foods like pineapple. Show off your new skin, don’t wait any longer!

Aids digestion and improves our night’s rest.

When we say pineapple is a superfood we’re not exaggerating. If we are listing its benefits we cannot ignore one of the most important: it helps improve your digestion and it protects our digestive system from possible intestinal problems. This fruit can also be eaten at night without any trouble at all, thanks to its melatonin content, a hormone that helps control our sleep cycles.

End your day with one of our smoothies, sweeten your night and improve your rest. We can’t think of a better way to end the day than with one of our pineapple Life Smoothies. Your choice: Banana, coconut and pineapple or beet root, ginger, pineapple and blueberries. Our Tropi Colada and Beet the Heat are waiting for you!

And now you know, eating pineapple is a real treat,
