Servings: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 1 large banana sliced
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 cup frozen mango pieces
- 3/4 cup pineapple juice
- 1/2 cup canned light coconut milk or regular, if preferred
- Optional garnishes: Pineapple wedges maraschino cherries, lime slices, mint sprigs
Instructions
- Begin by placing the banana, frozen pineapple, frozen mango, pineapple juice, and coconut milk into a blender.
- Blend the mixture on high until the texture becomes completely smooth and creamy.
- Once blended, pour the smoothie evenly into two glasses.
- If desired, add garnishes like fresh pineapple wedges, maraschino cherries, lime slices, or mint sprigs for a tropical touch.
- Serve immediately for the freshest flavor and consistency.
Notes
- Both refrigerated and canned pineapple juice work well in this recipe, so feel free to use whichever you have on hand.
- I usually opt for canned coconut milk, found in the ethnic foods section of most supermarkets. While refrigerated coconut milk is an alternative, it lacks the rich, creamy texture of the canned version.
- For the best results, enjoy this smoothie right away, as it tends to separate if left for an extended period.
