Tropical Pineapple Coconut Smoothie
Sweet frozen pineapple meets creamy coconut Greek yogurt in this bright, island-inspired drink. Fresh lime juice adds a sharp citrus kick that perfectly balances the natural sweetness of the ripe banana. You'll love the subtle warmth from a touch of rum extract, giving it a vacation vibe without any alcohol. It's an incredibly refreshing choice for a quick breakfast or a cooling afternoon treat.
Equipment
- Blender
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 banana, quartered
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 container (5.3 oz) blended coconut Greek yogurt
- ½ teaspoon rum extract, if desired
Instructions
- 1Add the frozen pineapple, quartered banana, lime juice, coconut Greek yogurt, and rum extract to a blender.
- 2Secure the lid and process on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and creamy. Blending on high incorporates more air for a fluffier texture. Pour into a tall glass to serve.
Notes
- Swap: Frozen mango makes an excellent substitute for the pineapple if you prefer a different flavor profile.
- Tip: If the smoothie is too thick, add a splash of coconut water or milk to help it blend.
- Storage: Smoothies are best enjoyed immediately, but you can freeze leftovers in an ice cube tray to blend into future drinks.
