Turn Dole Frozen Fruit into a Smoothie

by 500 Comments

Dole invited my family to host a Fruit Smoothie party with their line of Frozen Fruit. The Fruit arrived just in time for our heat wave we had last week so I pulled out the blender and invited all of our friends over.

What better way to cool off than with a smoothie?

IMG_1297Dole provided us with the cups, straws, and free product coupons to purchase the Dole frozen fruit. I will admit that I had a lot of trouble finding the frozen fruit. I’ve seen it before at Albertsons, but they were completely out, perhaps it was due to the heat wave and everyone had the same idea. Dole also provided us with a few party favors and music for the day. We decided to use it as a play date and the kids just adored the fun cups.

Once it was announced that we were having smoothies, the kids anxiously awaited them.

To Make the Smoothie:

  1. Blend Bag of Frozen Fruit in blender
  2. Add Milk to get the desired thickness
  3. Serve to guests

The mix was gone so fast I realized I didn’t take any photos of anyone actually drinking and enjoying them. I’m not a big fruit fan, but I’ll take a smoothie any day.

Good news is Dole provided us with so many coupons that everyone was able to take home a coupon and I have more to share with my readers.

Give a Unique, Personal Gift From 365Canvas This Year

Thank you to 365Canvas for sponsoring this post! I’ve always been a big fan of canvas printing. I think it’s such an artistic, beautiful way to display favorite photos. Over the years, I’ve been slowly but surely getting all our favorite family snaps put onto canvas. I thought I had gotten pretty much every photo […]

  2. We like to head up to the state park/forest. The higher elevation and all the trees make this a cool place to be.

  43. We cool off by staying inside. 100 degree heat is just too much! That and diet coke floats for me, frozen dannon collusion tubes for the kiddo.

  65. There is no cooling off here in Virginia–it is pure misery until mid October. But I like to close all the drapes and curtains, turn the A/C on high, sit on the couch with an afghan and a hot cup of coffee, and pretend that it is winter.

  70. I cool off by drinking hot tea, I know it sounds strange but when you drink it your body fights the warm to cool you down!

  79. I cool off the best by staying in the house in the a/c, but with kids, I tend to spend more time on the patio, when they go in the pool. I bring a spray bottle of water out with me and spritz myself as I get hot. If it’s too hot, we only go in the morning or late afternoon.
    Thanks so much.

  363. I cool off by staying indoors in the air conditioning, drinking loads of water, and only going out to run errands when the sun sets. No, I’m not a vampire, I just get a bad physical reaction from being out in the heat and the sun !
