A super refreshing pineapple blueberry smoothie recipe that has tropical vibes and is colored beautifully.

The good thing about smoothies is, they can be enjoyed any time of the year.
With smoothies, you can drink them any time you like, and they typically tend to provide you with your 5 a day!
Do Blueberries And Pineapple Go Together?
Absolutely. Blueberries and pineapple are in fact one of the best combinations. Pineapple has a strong tropical flavor, whilst blueberries have a more subtle flavor.
So, they balance each other very well!
On top of that, they both offer a unique set of health benefits such as vitamins and minerals. This means when you combine them both, you get different benefits from each.
For example, pineapple contains enzymes also known as Bromelain. This enzyme helps to treat indigestion and reduce inflammation.
