Tropical Smoothie

This tropical smoothie combines frozen fruit and coconut milk blended until smooth, resulting in a creamy, vibrant beverage with a thick, icy texture. The ingredients are processed in a blender, creating a uniformly puréed drink that resembles a frosty, juice-like consistency with a bright, colorful appearance.

  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks or any preferred tropical fruit
  • 1 cup frozen mango chunks
  • 1 cup coconut milk or coconut milk beverage

Method
 

  1. Measure out the frozen pineapple and mango chunks, transferring them into the blender.
    1 cup frozen pineapple chunks, 1 cup frozen mango chunks
  2. Add the coconut milk to the blender, pouring directly over the frozen fruit.
    1 cup coconut milk
  3. Add honey for extra sweetness, if desired. Secure the lid tightly on the blender.
    1 tbsp honey
  4. Blend on high speed until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, with a thick, slightly frosty texture. Observe the color brighten as ingredients combine, and listen for the sound of the motor running steadily.
  5. Stop the blender and check the consistency; if the smoothie is too thick, add a splash more coconut milk and blend briefly until smooth. The final result should be thick, icy, and well combined, ready to serve.
  6. Pour the smoothie into glasses, and optionally garnish with fresh fruit or a slice of pineapple for presentation.
