If you like apple pie this smoothie is for you. The apple pie spice, applesauce and ice cream will give this drink the taste of mom's homemade apple pie. Yummy! This is also a great treat for kids.

If you or your kids have a hard time getting the recommended daily amount of fruit this is a great way to do so.
1 cup orange juice
1 cup papaya, peeled and diced
1/2 cup cantaloupe, peeled and diced
1/2 cup mango, peeled and diced
2 apricots, pitted and diced
Pour the orange juice into a Vita-Mix blender.
Now place the papaya, cantaloupe, mango and apricots in the blender.
Puree the mixture using medium speed for 1 minute.
This is a great smoothie to have on a nice warm day because of the frozen fruits. It's the middle of winter where I'm at but regardless of that this is still a wonderful smoothie!
