Pineapple Coconut Smoothie

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

This pineapple coconut smoothie recipe is a tropical fruit delight that’s both healthy and refreshing. It’s dairy free, vegan and only contains 4 ingredients.

I make these tropical flavored smoothies for breakfast or a snack, and the kids just adore them! If you love smoothies as much as we do, don’t miss these cherry, blueberry and mango smoothies.

We have been on a major smoothie kick over here – my girls have been asking for one every day lately. I’m totally fine with their smoothie obsession because smoothies are an awesome way to get fruit into them and make a healthy snack or breakfast option. Our current favorite is this pineapple coconut smoothie – the tropical flavors almost make me feel like I’m on a beach instead of at home in the never ending rain.

How do you make a pineapple coconut smoothie?

The other thing I love about this smoothie is that it only has 4 ingredients, all of which I typically keep in the house. It’s a simple combination of banana, frozen pineapple, shredded coconut and almondmiHlk. I use Almond Breeze Almondmilk in these pineapple coconut smoothies. You can use either the original or coconutmilk blend varieties. I’ve tested it both ways and either will turn out great, but I do prefer the coconut blend in this drink.

This recipe couldn’t be any simpler – just put the ingredients in the blender, turn it on and in less than 3 minutes you’ve got a refreshing and healthy treat. I added some garnishes to up the fun factor like lime and pineapple wedges, mint sprigs and sugar rimmed glasses but that’s completely optional.

Whether it’s raining and dreary outside or a hot and sunny day, this pineapple coconut smoothie recipe is sure to please. It also happens to be vegan, dairy free and gluten free which means everyone can enjoy it. So what are you waiting for? Grab your blender and make this drink today!

    I was lead to your recipe blog from Awesome Eats. You have some great recipes here. I recently returned from a cruise and was fascinated by some of the mocktails that some of my nieces and nephews ordered. It looks like you have some good drinks on your blog. Thanks for sharing.

    I’ve been a little slack with my smoothie game! I need to get back to it. I’m definitely missing refreshing, easy treats like these. We have also been loving the coconut almond blend! Great choice for this smoothie.

    This looks so refreshing! I don’t know what we’d do without Almond Breeze products! The Coconut Blend is a new one to me though – I will have to keep an eye out for it.

    My family loves smoothies too but I’ve been slacking! Mainly because I don’t have the ingredients on hand! I will have to try this one out soon!
