In the summer I love mint and pineapple! These flavors combined make the ultimate cocktail of bliss for the taste buds. It is very refreshing and light – perfect for salads and drinks.
Today’s recipes feature a delicious smoothie and salad dressing. If you purchase your mint leaves, you can use the left over mint for a refreshing water drink. Sliced lemons , mint, and ice water in a pitcher makes a great thirst quencher in the hot summer.

Pour over salad greens. I sprinkled craisins and shredded mozzarella on my greens. Is also great on grilled chicken.
Kiwi Mint Mixer
