Even though summer break is winding down, the hot weather isn’t going anywhere just yet, making it the perfect time to keep the refreshing vibes alive with some delicious fruit smoothies. These aren’t just any smoothies—they’re bursting with flavors that’ll get your kids excited for school. Think tropical smoothies with pineapple and coconut, frozen berry blends loaded with strawberries and blueberries, or creamy mango smoothies that taste like pure sunshine. They’re perfect on the side of breakfast or as a healthy snack on the way to school. We’ve also included some great cup recommendations to keep them fresh until they’re ready to drink.

1. Tropical Smoothie Bowl by Sina Mizrahi
This is a kid favorite. It’s fresh and light and heavily sweetened with fruit — ideal to offer to an uninitiated smoothie drinker. The added coconut and dates give it a tropical feel, along with the strawberries and kiwi. Don’t forget the hemp seeds; they’re an excellent source of Omega 3s and have a chewy, nutty texture.
2. Green Detox Smoothie Bowl by Sina Mizrahi
Every time I finish a bowl of this green smoothie, I feel refreshed. There are two kinds of dark leafy greens in it, which are high in folate and iron, plus banana and avocado for heft and healthy fat. The toppings round it all off with fruit for sweetness and chia seeds for an added nutritional boost. After this bowl, you will feel positively glowing!
