Ingredients
Fruits
- 1 cup frozen chopped pineapple
- 1 cup frozen chopped mango
- 1 frozen peeled, sliced banana
Dairy
- 1 cup nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt
Liquids
- 1/2 cup coconut water
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
Sweetener
- Sweetener to taste (honey or sugar recommended)
Instructions
- Blend: Add all ingredients to a high powered blender, starting with the frozen fruits, followed by the Greek yogurt and then the liquids. Blend on high until the mixture is very smooth and creamy.
- Adjust: Based on your preferred texture, add ice cubes if you want a thicker smoothie. For a thinner consistency, gradually add more pineapple juice, orange juice, or coconut water. Adjust sweetness by adding honey or sugar, one half tablespoon at a time, blending briefly after each addition to distribute evenly.
- Enjoy: Pour the smoothie evenly into two glasses and serve immediately for the freshest flavor and best texture.
Notes
- Use frozen fruits to achieve a thick, chilled smoothie without adding ice if desired.
- You can substitute nonfat vanilla Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt to make it vegan.
- Adjust the sweetness as per your taste or dietary needs.
- For extra protein, add a scoop of protein powder or a tablespoon of nut butter during blending.
- Ensure your blender is high-powered to achieve the smoothest texture.
