To make this smoothy more of a complete breakfast, omit the sparkling cider and replace with 1/4 cup silken tofu, 1 banana, or 1/4 cup yogurt.

1 1/2 cups fresh pineapple chunks (about one half)
1 mango (cut in chunks)
1 cup yellow juice such as pineapple, apple, or white grape
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lime juice
1 cup of ice (or whatever your blender can handle)
1 cup sparkling cider

1. Blend fruit, fruit juices, and ice in a blender until smooth. Stir in sparkling cider. Serve.
