National Smoothie Day!

Posted on Friday, June 21, 2019

Smoothies – what a perfect word. A delectable summer treat, and beneficial to your health (if you’re into that). One of my favorite days of the year is today, Friday, June 21^st. You may be asking yourself, “Caitlyn, why is a random Friday so special?”

Well, the answer to that question is simple: NATIONAL SMOOTHIE DAY!

A day dedicated to the wonderful concoctions made with fruits, vegetables, juice, and if you’re really lucky – ice cream or yogurt. In honor of this glorious holiday, I figured I would share my favorite places on Sanibel Island to grab a smoothie. I have declared myself an official connoisseur.

• Sanibel Sprout! – Home to delicious and healthy drink options like juice, superfood shots, and of course smoothies.
• Sanibel Fresh! - Perfect location for a stop on your morning bike ride from the Lighthouse beach. Not only do they have nourishing smoothies, but they also offer breakfast options and acai bowls.
• The Bean! – Known mainly for their different coffee beverages, they also offer a small menu of smoothies. Awesome after a yoga class at the Sanibel Community House.
• Bailey’s Coffee Bar! – my absolute favorite spot. My go to smoothie is strawberry banana with a base of yogurt, and of course, whipped crème to top it off. Sometimes, they make me feel even more special by putting sprinkles on top.

Short but sweet, just like a smoothie. I hope to see you at some of these destinations, and if not stop by AIP Outfitters and let me know what you think.

Warm regards from paradise,

Caitlyn
