Another sugar laden drink ! Not healthy at all.
Thanks Blendtec for erasing my previous comments ! I guess this one will not be published either .
If you’re worried about it you could, oh I don’t know, leave it out…
Or use less, or use a different natural sweetener. Not that hard.
This sounds amazing, thank you so much for posting this :)
I think you don’t quite understand the nature of sugar…sugar in fruits is a good thing when accompanied with fiber (smoothies) as your body assimilates it slower and its converted to a cleaner energy. Fruit juices that separates all the fiber is giving the sugar straight to the body which increases insulin etc. honey isn’t necessarily bad if you eat it in smaller doses. But there is lots of sugar in honey and not the fiber but there are health benefits to honey too.
The sugar is also in the fruits ! (Aside from the agave and honey).
I would never drink this , blood sugar would go through the roof. I have no Diabetes.

4 tbsp of agave? or did you list that twice by mistake?
There are 2 tablespoons in each portion of the smoothie so 4 tablespoons total.
This looks great for a special treat! I can’t wait to try it!
Dave, Dave,Dave,
SUGAR IS NEVER, EVER A GOOD THING-NEVER !!!!
I get plenty of fiber from nuts and seeds .
yumm — I love strawberries & coconut
Unterderlaterne live a little…everything in moderation! You can’t live on just nuts and seeds!
When was Blendtec only limited to healthified recipes? I for one appreciate a nice treat once in a while and this sounds good. I am an adult and know I can modify a recipe in any which way or form I choose. Thank you Blendtec for having all types of recipes. Excuse the rude health freaks who don’t know how to be courteous.
Who said I only live on nuts and seeds?
Unterderlaterne,So you shouldn’t eat because everything has sugar is unhealthy or make you feel bad
If you’re saying that fruit is not good for you I think you need to study up on your nutrition facts. Yes, you shouldn’t have excess because it does have sugar,(natural sugar, not refined) but there are many other health benefits to fruit.
The Blendtec and the Wildside+ jar are amoral. We can add healthy ingredients or not-so-healthy ingredients.With that said, enjoy my party version. I am substituting agave and the salt for sweetened coconut soy milk and adding coconut rum to make the "Adult Party" version. Garnish with a slice of pineapple and a strawberry.
I eat fruits low in sugar, such as blueberries, blackberries etc.
Nowhere did I say that I do not consume fruits !

You must be fun at parties
You’re awesome! AMEN!!
You can add it with everything else!
So when are you supposed to add the rum?
This sounds really good. I’m going to print up this recipe and make it when it gets hotter out. And I like that it does not have any booze in it, since I do not drink.
