Our Pineapple Mango Smoothie is made with coconut milk, pineapple, and mango. Tropical flavors that whisk you away to sandy beaches with warm ocean breezes.
After all this cold weather, I could use some warm sunny days. A tropical smoothie wouldn’t hurt either. Well, it just so happens, we already have a few of those on the site. Kim decided we should redo at least one of them.
For today, we decided republish our pineapple mange smoothie. It was originally published in April of 2016 and used to be a sponsored post. However, since the recipe needed to be refreshed, we decided to change it altogether.
Now, it’s still a pineapple mango smoothie; however, we removed the sponsored ingredients and all of the verbiage that went along with it. So, for all intents and purposes, it’s pretty much a new post. That, Kim and I hope you enjoy. Let’s make a smoothie!
Pineapple Mango Smoothie Instructions:
Okay, it’s a smoothie, so don’t expect a complicated process with a lot of different steps. In fact, you probably don’t even need detailed directions for this recipe.
Instead, I will give a quick rundown on what to do and then we’ll talk about something else. There will still be step by step pictures for you peruse, but I doubt you’ll need them.
To start, grab your frozen mango and pineapple chunks. After that, open the can of coconut milk. Then, snag your honey and turmeric. Now, measure it all out and dump it directly into your blender.
Turn your blender onto high and start pulverizing the pineapple mango smoothie. Once everything is creamy and there are no chunks, pour the drink into two (2) twelve (12) ounces glasses and serve.
So, uh, yeah, that’s it. You just made your own smoothie. Honestly, most smoothies are that simple. Between you and me, I don’t know how all these “specialty,” drink shops stay open.
From what I’ve heard, hearsay mind you, the is secret ice cream. It seems that a lot of places use ice cream and/or sherbet to make their smoothies. For that reason, Kim and I make our favorite drinks at home.
One quick note before I wrap things up. When this post was sponsored, Kim had written about some the anti-inflammatory properties of turmeric. Personally, I believe that those claims are based on sound research and I apply them to my own life.
With that being, since I’m neither a doctor nor nutritionist, all of those claims have been removed. In my opinion, if you want expert advice on your dietary needs, then, you need to go to an expert in that field.
Smoothie Tips:
Alright, what kind of tips can I give for making a smoothie? You could substitute ice cream for the coconut milk. While that will add a lot more sugar, it will also enhance the flavor of the drink.
As I stated earlier, most smoothies are made the same way. On the chance that you don’t care for mangoes, try a different tropical fruit like papaya.
If you don’t have a blender, then I recommend Hamilton Beach. Because, they have a single serve blender for under twenty (20) bucks (USD). I used to own one and it was perfect for making quick smoothies and cocktails.

I almost made a pineapple mango smoothie tonight for dinner and at the last minute change my mind to orange banana. Thanks for this recipe. Ironically I grabbed a can of coconut milk last week at a good price and was wondering what to do with it. Normally I buy cartons of coconut milk. Your recipe calls for turmeric, which ironically I bought a few weeks ago too, and have only used once. I never would have thought about adding it to a smoothie. I’m more about cinnamon in my smoothies! Thanks for the recipe. I’m definitely making this. Gives me an excuse to use up that can of coconut milk.
And by the way, I see nothing wrong with ice cream or frozen yogurt in smoothies! Not that I make it that way at home, but when I go out to the local smoothie store to buy one, I’m definitely looking for that treat in the one I choose!

Thank you for commenting, Cheryl! Kim and I are glad you enjoyed the smoothie recipe. The coconut milk and frozen fruit combination is our go to, “base,” for a lot of smoothies we make at home. So, we buy a lot of those ingredients as well. Lol! I figured people would disagree with my comments on going out for smoothies. I feel what bothers me about adding ice cream to a smoothie is that it pretty much shatters the, “health halo,” around the food. Smoothies are marketed as healthier alternatives. However, when you load it up with vanilla ice cream, it kind of defeats the purpose. It’s kind of like taking a healthy salad and killing it with high fat, high calorie dressing. You know, like our diner salad lol! But, as long as you acknowledge your going for a treat and not an everyday healthy food, that’s what matters. Know what I mean? But, that’s just my opinion, so take it for what it’s worth. Thanks again for commenting and have a lovely day 🙂

lauren says
I have a tough time with the strong taste of tumeric, but the citrus and acids in this smoothie may actually make it palatable for me!! Thanks for sharing!
John says
Thank you, Lauren! I know what you mean about turmeric, but my rheumatologist swears by it as an anti-inflammatory spice. This drink makes does make it palatable and hides the “dirty and earthy” flavors of turmeric. Have a great weekend. 🙂
Sarah Hughes says
This looks so delicious. Pineapple is one of my favourite flavours when it comes to drinks so I should really give this one a go!
John says
Thank you, Sarah! I am glad you liked the recipe. To be honest, I wonder if adding a little more coconut milk and rum would make this into a great summer cocktail lol!
