Tropical Mai Tai Smoothie
Sweet frozen pineapple and tart cherries meet bright citrus juices in this creamy, dairy-free drink. You'll get all the tropical flavor of a classic Mai Tai cocktail without the alcohol. Almond milk adds a smooth, slightly nutty finish that ties the whole glass together. It's a fantastic morning refresher or a fun mocktail option for warm afternoons.
Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- ¾ cup frozen pineapple
- ½ cup frozen cherries
- ½ cup orange juice
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- ½ cup almond milk
Instructions
- 1Combine the frozen pineapple, frozen cherries, orange juice, lime juice, and almond milk in a blender. Add the liquid ingredients first to help the blades catch the frozen fruit more easily.
- 2Blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy.
- 3Pour the finished smoothie into a large glass and enjoy while it's still frosty.
Notes
- Swap: If you use fresh pineapple and cherries instead of frozen, add a half cup of ice cubes to keep the texture thick and frosty.
- Make ahead: Smoothies are best blended fresh, but you can measure all the fruit into a freezer bag the night before for quicker prep.
