Pineapple Coconut Smoothie

This pineapple coconut smoothie is packed with sweet pineapples, creamy coconut milk, and delicious shredded coconut. It’s the perfect flavor combo when you’re craving a quick, tropical flavored smoothie!

Have you ever had one of those mornings when you are craving an easy smoothie? Our pineapple coconut smoothie is exactly that.

This pineapple coconut smoothie is hands down my favorite smoothie! I always keep several cans of coconut milk on hand and have a couple of bags of frozen pineapple in the freezer.

If I’m in a time crunch, this smoothie whips up much faster than buttermilk biscuits or blueberry pancakes, and the cleanup is easy. Not to mention, this pineapple smoothie keeps me full for hours.

It’s loaded with creamy coconut milk, naturally sweet pineapple chunks, and shredded coconut. Occasionally, I’ll add an extra ingredient like a touch of honey or scoop of protein powder.

The full-fat coconut milk gives this smoothie a full-bodied creaminess that other smoothies just can’t duplicate. Best of all, there are only four ingredients to this drink. So, you know what you are drinking.

How to make a pineapple coconut smoothie:

• Place the coconut milk (both liquid and solids), almond milk, shredded coconut, and frozen pineapple chunks into a blender.
• Process until smooth.
• Add additional almond milk or coconut water if the smoothie is too thick.
• Pour into glasses, and top with fresh pineapple chunks and more shredded coconut if desired.

The smoothie is simple to prepare and only takes a few minutes to gather everything up and blend them together.

Another benefit to using our recipe is that it doesn’t have a single scoop of ice cream. If you have ordered something like this in a restaurant or drink bar, then it most likely had ice cream as the main ingredient.

Frozen dairy products tend to be packed with sugar. No worries here, because we use coconut milk instead.

If you wish to reduce the fat content, you can always use a low-fat version of the coconut milk. While I cannot comment on its taste, I feel it’s still a better option than a frozen dairy product.
