Description

A vibrant and tropical smoothie made with fresh pineapple and banana, perfect for a refreshing drink anytime. It’s sweet, creamy, and packed with vitamins and natural energy!


Ingredients

  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen pineapple chunks
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt (or dairy-free yogurt for a vegan option)
  • 1/2 cup coconut water or orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup (optional, depending on sweetness)
  • Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker texture)
  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for extra flavor)

Instructions

  • Add the banana, pineapple chunks, Greek yogurt, and coconut water (or orange juice) to a blender.
  • Blend until smooth and creamy, adding a few ice cubes if you want a colder or thicker consistency.
  • Taste the smoothie, and if you prefer it sweeter, add honey or maple syrup and blend again.
  • Pour into a glass, and enjoy immediately! Optionally, you can garnish with a small slice of pineapple or a few banana slices.

Notes

  • For an extra boost, add a handful of spinach or kale to sneak in some greens without compromising the flavor.

  • You can substitute coconut water with almond milk or regular milk for a creamier consistency.

  • Add protein powder or chia seeds if you want to turn this into a more filling meal replacement.
