A creamy, icy blend of tropical pineapple and silky coconut with a hint of vanilla — sunshine in a glass!

Servings: 1–2 glasses

⏰ Prep Time: 5 minutes
⏳ Total Time: 5 minutes
Naturally gluten-free, vegetarian


Ingredients:

  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
    Sweet, tart, and icy — they thicken the smoothie without needing frozen banana.

  • ½ cup coconut milk (use full-fat for extra creaminess or light for a lighter sip)

  • ½ cup Greek yogurt (plain or vanilla — for protein and a silky texture)

  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional, depending on how sweet your pineapple is)

  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract (adds warmth and depth)

  • ½ cup ice cubes (for extra chill and body)


Instructions:

  1. Add to Blender
    In a high-speed blender, add the frozen pineapple chunks, coconut milk, Greek yogurt, honey, vanilla extract, and ice cubes.

  2. Blend Until Smooth
    Blend on high speed for 30–60 seconds, or until everything is creamy and smooth. Scrape down the sides if needed and blend again briefly.

  3. Taste & Adjust
    Taste the smoothie and adjust sweetness to your preference. Add a little more honey or a splash of pineapple juice if desired.

  4. Serve
    Pour into a tall glass, garnish with a pineapple wedge, toasted coconut flakes, or even a mini cocktail umbrella for fun!


Tips & Variations:

  • Creamier version? Add half a frozen banana for an extra thick and creamy texture.

  • Colder? Use frozen coconut milk cubes instead of regular ice.

  • Mocktail vibe? Add a splash of pineapple juice and serve in a chilled cocktail glass.

  • Grown-up twist? Add 1 oz of white rum for a smoothie-cocktail fusion!
