The perfect tropical snack
Looking for an idea to get more fruit into your kids without the arguing? In this blog I share 3 simple, healthy and tasty smoothie recipes that my kids absolutely love. Making them is fun and the results are so delicious you can even turn them into fruit ice cream! Let summer be full of vitamins and joy – for little and big ones alike.
🧒🍓 3 kids' smoothie recipes they'll adore (and so will you 😉)
As a mum, I've often wondered how to get my son to eat more fruit, while cutting down on all those shop-bought sweets full of white sugar, flavour enhancers and additives. You won't be surprised to hear that I was completely fed up with the daily haggling: "Just eat a little more fruit, come on!"
But you know what? Seek and you shall find. 💡 Tropska Malica was my answer! The solution was simpler than I'd imagined: I started making smoothies. Colourful, tasty, full of vitamins – and best of all, kids love helping to make them themselves.
Just like me, you can whip up a healthy, fun meal or snack in one go that the kids will happily eat. And if there happens to be some left over (which is rare 😄), just freeze it – and you've got ice cream!

You can even let them choose the name of the smoothie – with the little ones, a fun name alone works wonders at getting them to taste it.
🥭 1. Mango + banana + coconut = Sunshine in a glass
Ingredients:
-
1 ripe banana
-
1 dl coconut milk (or another plant-based drink)
-
1 teaspoon cashews or macadamia nuts
Method:
Blend all the ingredients until smooth.
✅ Tip: This smoothie has a sweet, creamy taste, which makes it ideal even for the littlest ones who don't like sour flavours.
🍍 2. Tropical bomb for little explorers
Ingredients:
-
1/2 apple
-
1 dl apple juice, pineapple juice or water
-
1 teaspoon oat flakes (optional)
Method:
Blend all the ingredients and serve straight away.
✅ Tip: Great as a "power snack" after playtime! And if you pour it into ice lolly moulds, you'll get a refreshing fruit ice lolly with no added sugar!
🍓 3. Acai + strawberries + blueberries = Purple power for superheroes
Ingredients:
-
a handful of fresh or frozen strawberries
-
a handful of blueberries
-
1 dl almond milk
Method:
Blend all the ingredients until smooth.
✅ Tip: If you'd like a sweeter taste, add a teaspoon of honey or maple syrup. I sometimes simply use Berry mix, which is already naturally sweet, and add just a few more blueberries.
💡 Why will kids absolutely love these smoothies?
✨ Because they look like a sweet treat, not “something healthy”.
👩🍳 Because they can make them themselves – you help, they create.
🍦 Because we can freeze them and turn them into fruit ice cream – with no added sugar!
No more daily haggling. Why not offer them a snack like this instead of crisps or sweets? The kids will have more energy, no bloated tummies at bedtime, and there will be plenty of vitamins too!
