Lime and Mint Mojito Smoothie

Ughhh, after all of the holiday sweets and treats it is time for a sugar detox! Okay, now let’s not get crazy. I’m not totally off my sugar high. But I do plan on drinking more smoothies and eating less M&M’s. Baby Steps.

I am joining some other fantastic bloggers for a Happy & Healthy series. I don’t really consider myself the ‘diet type’. I’m more the ‘stop stuffing my face so much’ type. I think I’ll be successful if I keep making flavorful smoothies like this one!

This Mojito Smoothie Recipe is unbelievably refreshing! The lime and mint combination tastes clean and energizing.

Back in my drinking days, Mojitos were one of my favorite co*cktails. And now this is one of my favorite smoothie flavors.

Fresh mint is the star. This smoothie will give you nice breathe too. Bonus!

Creamy coconut and tangy lime bring a little tropical flavor to this pool-side drink.

I agree, I need a sugar detox! This smoothie looks so refreshing. Good luck learning to play the guitar. I know how to play a few songs and I’d love to know more, it’s so relaxing to be able to sit down and sing a little song once in a while!

This smoothie sounds amazing, Nicole!
I’m allergic to coconut though, so I’ll be making it with regular milk. Can’t miss out on that minty fresh breath 🙂

  Haha, I know, Right!?! Actually the social media thing will not be too hard for me. I’m not a huge fan of most social media. I love Instagram and that’s about it.

  I kinda feel bad that I was sipping a slushy mojito smoothie in 75 degrees and I totally forgot that everyone else is sipping hot cocoa in the cold. Ooopsie 🙂

That looks great, do you think lemon would work in place of lime? I have a gazillion of those. My main aim this year is to cut down the online time too! I love blogging but it’s a huge time suck!

  Yeah, lemon will work. It will just be a lemony-minty smoothie. Sounds good to me! I agree, the social media has become a problem. Total Time Suck! I could spend all day on social media and get nowhere.

Can I blend lime with the peel? ›

You don't have to remove the lime peels but I prefer to, as it can be really bitter. If you want to add the limes in whole, do NOT blend for more than 20 seconds before straining. Feel free to add a splash of any alcohol of choice, if you're in the mood. You can absolutely use lemons instead of limes.

Can you blend lime rind? ›

Grab your leftover lime rinds (here, Veronica appears to have about 8 to 10 limes), load them in a full-size blender with 3 cups of water, and pulse “just three times.” Strain the entire solution into a stovetop pot — don't press, or you'll risk a bitter syrup, adds Veronica.
