A proper tropical fruit smoothie with a soursop tea base, which gives it a creamy, slightly tangy lift you do not get from water or juice alone. Frozen banana makes it thick, mango and pineapple bring the sunshine, and coconut milk does away with the dairy. Ready in a couple of minutes once the tea has cooled.

You'll need

2 Dalgety Pure Soursop tea bags
100ml freshly drawn water, brought to a true rolling boil
1 large fresh banana, peeled and frozen (about 120g)
100g fresh ripe mango chunks
100g fresh ripe pineapple chunks
200ml cold barista coconut milk
1 tablespoon of clear runny honey
1 small handful of cubed ice (optional, for the serving glass)
1 tall 500ml glass
1 small heatproof jug
1 jug blender
1 metal straw

Method

Drop the soursop bags into a heatproof jug, pour over the 100ml of just boiled water, cover and steep for five minutes.
Lift the bags out without pressing, then cool the brew quickly by standing the jug in cold water.
Put the frozen banana, mango, pineapple, coconut milk and honey into a blender.
Pour the cooled soursop tea over the top.
Blend, starting slow then going fast, for about a minute, until smooth and bright yellow.
If it is too thick to pour, add a splash more coconut milk and blend again.
Pour into a tall glass, over ice if you like, and drink straight away.
Tip: use a frozen banana, which makes it thick and cold without watering it down with ice.

What you'll end up with: A thick, bright yellow tropical smoothie, creamy with coconut and banana and tangy with mango, pineapple and soursop.
