Tropical Smoothie Recipe

Two tropical smoothies with fresh mint, lime wedges and sliced pineapple.

Ingredients

▢3/4 cup pineapple juice
▢1/2 cup canned coconut milk light is ok
▢1 large banana sliced
▢1 cup frozen mango
▢1 cup frozen pineapple
▢Optional garnishes: Maraschino cherries, lime slices, mint sprigs, pineapple wedges.

Instructions

Place the pineapple juice, coconut milk, banana, mango and pineapple in a blender; blend until completely smooth.

Pour the smoothie into 2 glasses and add optional garnishes if desired. Serve immediately.

Notes

You can use refrigerated or canned pineapple juice for this recipe – either will work just fine.
I typically use canned coconut milk, which is located in the ethnic foods aisle of most grocery stores. You can also use refrigerated coconut milk, but it may not have the same thick and rich texture as the canned variety.
This smoothie is best when served immediately, as it may separate if stored for a long period of time.
