This Hawaiian Tropical Wheatgrass Smoothie is a sunshine-in-a-glass blend that captures the spirit of the islands. Fresh pineapple, a juicy orange, and ripe papaya create a naturally sweet, creamy base, while wheatgrass adds a subtle earthy note and a boost of nutrients. Blended with ice until frosty, it’s a refreshing, energizing drink perfect for mornings, workouts, or a healthy afternoon pick-me-up.
