Pineapple Vanilla Smoothie by Kaleb


We decided to make these fun little Pineapple Vanilla Smoothies this weekend in honor of summer. We are really ready for the warm weather, bikinis, and drinks that smell like sunscreen. These smoothies make a great refreshing recovery drink after your workout or also make a nutritious way to start your day as breakfast (or a nice refresher on the beach). Enjoy!

What You'll Need:
1 c. Pineapple with Juice
2 c. Low-fat Vanilla Yogurt
1/4 Coconut Milk
1/4 tsp. Ground Ginger
1 c. Ice


This smoothie is pretty simple to make. All you have to do is combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. In the process of creating this recipe I learned that the pineapple juice really helps to sweeten and flavor the smoothie. Feel free to add some extra pineapple juice if the yogurt taste is overpowering the rest of the flavors. Also we believe you can never have too much pineapple. It just tastes so yummy!

  4. Wow!!! I miss summer too and not to mention home (The Philippines!) when I see thia. It brings me back to the time I was living on an island called Boracay (the number one destination in the Philippines for traveling) I was drinking smoothies all day to keep myself cool.

    What a great time that was :) Thanks for this and will definitely try it out.

    Thanks for the comment on my page!
