Apricot & Strawberry Swirl Smoothie

I was totally blank today, didn't know what smoothie to make. I had some apricots, kiwi's, banana's and strawberries in the fridge. Since it is a no banana smoothie, i was left with 3 fruits in hand. I remembered seeing a swirl smoothie while blog-hopping sometime ago. That is how i got the idea of today's smoothie. Thank god for my memory, the smoothie was out of the world, the flavors were so amazing. One of the best recipes to surprise your people at home with colors on the breakfast table. Try and let me know how you liked it.

3 nos fresh apricots, pitted, chopped into chunks
