I’ve been taking little ‘trips’ to Hawaii lately…
Somedays right after I workout & somedays in the late afternoon.
Whenever a need a little boost.
Wanna know how I get there? A sip of Pure Earth Pineapple Juice transports me, yup ~ juice.
You see, I drink pineapple juice when we visit Hawaii – “a when in Rome” kinda thing, but never at home.
Then I was introduced to Pure Earth Juice & it transported me straight to Maui. You know sometimes how the scent of something has such a strong connection to a place or a person. My grandma’s perfume is like that…whenever I smell it I feel like she is with me.
Ok, back to the juice…
I have been making Pineapple Protein smoothies with the Pure Earth Juice.
Drinking one within an hour after a workout gives me the protein I need to feed the muscles I just worked. (you need about 20 grams of protein within an hour after a strenuous workout)
One in the afternoon gives me the energy boost I need, rather than reaching for a cookie or caffeine ~ or both!
Want to join me in Hawaii? Want to start your day right? Get an afternoon boost? Ok, I’ll share my recipe.
Pineapple Protein Smoothie with Pure Earth Juice
- 3/4 cup Del Monte Pure Earth Pineapple Juice
- 1 cup low fat greek yogurt
- one scoop whey protein powder
- 1 frozen banana
- handful of blueberries
- 3 ice cubes
Whirl the ingredients together in a blender for a minute or two. Sip.
Pure Earth Juice comes in 4 flavors: pineapple, pineapple banana/coconut, pineapple lime and pineapple blueberry/blackberry. Click here for a coupon. Much cheaper then a trip to Hawaii even without the coupon!
Mahalo to Del Monte to introducing me to their newest product, sponsoring my smoothie and this post.
and…Aloha to you,

That’s what Chloe is the queen of: lovely protein smooties of all kinds. Nice that this product is no sugar added, no preservatives and pure juice not form concentrate. I’ll look them up. 😀 Oh, the other day, someone posted a chocolate-mint smoothie recipe form Cindy Crawford. C made it and it tasted exactly like a delicious chocolate-mint shake!
Chocolate mint! No sugar? haha! Bet it was good. Have Chloe try the pineapple juice as a splash in her usual recipes. It really is delicious. Have a wonderful weekend Veronica!

I’ve been loving the Pure Earth Juices. I wish my local Albertson’s carried those large bottles!
I got mine at Albertson’s Debbie. Ask the manager! Thanks for coming by…
Where can I buy the Pure Earth juice? I have not been able to find it at any of our stores.
Hi Jessica,
I purchased Pure Earth Juice at my local Albertson’s store. Recently I have noticed it at several other markets in my area. Hope you can find it!
