A creamy, tropical, and refreshing virgin piña colada smoothie made with pineapple, coconut milk, and Greek yogurt. Perfect for a quick, alcohol-free treat any time of day.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (225 g) frozen pineapple chunks
  • 1 cup (240 ml) coconut milk (canned full-fat or carton)
  • ½ cup (120 g) plain Greek yogurt (or dairy-free coconut yogurt)
  • 1 small ripe banana
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 tbsp (15 ml) fresh lime juice
  • ½ tsp (2.5 ml) vanilla extract
  • ½ cup (120 ml) ice cubes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: frozen pineapple chunks, coconut milk, Greek yogurt, banana, honey or maple syrup (optional), fresh lime juice, vanilla extract, and ice cubes (optional).
  2. Add coconut milk to the blender first to help the blades move smoothly.
  3. Add frozen pineapple chunks and banana to the blender.
  4. Spoon in the Greek yogurt.
  5. Add honey or maple syrup if using, fresh lime juice, and vanilla extract.
  6. Secure the lid and blend on high for 1 to 2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  7. If too thick, add a splash of coconut milk and blend again; if too thin, add ice cubes and pulse until desired consistency is reached.
  8. Serve immediately, garnished if desired.

Notes

Use frozen pineapple chunks for a thick, frosty texture without watering down the smoothie. Start blending with liquids first to avoid clumping. Adjust sweetness with honey or maple syrup sparingly. For dairy-free, substitute Greek yogurt with coconut yogurt or omit it and add more coconut milk. To thicken, add more frozen fruit or ice cubes. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
