Description
A quick, tropical smoothie blending fresh pineapple, coconut milk, and banana for a creamy, nutrient-packed drink. Perfect for breakfast, post-workout refueling, or a refreshing pick-me-up. Dairy-free and customizable for your taste.
Ingredients
2 cups fresh or frozen pineapple chunks
1 cup unsweetened coconut milk
1 ripe banana, peeled and frozen
1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt or dairy-free alternative
1 tablespoon chia seeds or ground flaxseed
1 teaspoon honey or pure maple syrup (optional)
1/2 cup ice cubes (if using fresh pineapple)
Instructions
Gather all ingredients and freeze serving glasses for 5 minutes.
Place coconut milk at the bottom of the blender, followed by pineapple, frozen banana, yogurt, chia seeds, and optional syrup.
Blend on medium-high for 45–60 seconds until smooth and frothy. Pause to scrape down sides if needed.
Adjust consistency with more coconut milk or ice as needed.
Pour into chilled glasses and garnish with shredded coconut (optional). Sip immediately.
Notes
Freeze the banana 60–90 minutes in advance to achieve the best texture.
Use ice only with fresh pineapple; frozen fruit naturally thickens the smoothie.
For a sweeter flavor, opt for light coconut milk instead of unsweetened.
