Piña-vocado Smoothie

pineapple, coconut, avocado smoothie

Hot, humid days call for refreshing frozen treats, am I right? Here’s an ultra-creamy smoothie recipe made with pineapple, coconut and avocado. It’s a vegan recipe adapted from Healthy Happy Life.

Piña-vocado Smoothie
Author: 
Recipe type: Smoothie
Serves: 1
 

Ingredients
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 cup frozen pineapple
  • 1/2 avocado
  • 1/2 of a frozen banana
  • 1/2 a lime’s worth of lime juice
  • 3 Tbsp coconut milk, if you have it
  • Pinch of sea salt

Instructions
  1. Blend well, pour into a glass and enjoy! Serves one. I like to garnish mine with unsweetened coconut flakes and a lime wedge.

I particularly like this smoothie because it is incredibly creamy and incorporates some healthy fat. Have you tried avocado in your smoothies yet?

    This is an interesting twist and what a great flavor idea! I haven’t used avocado in a smoothie yet, but I certainly will now! I think it will compliment really nicely with the pineapple.

    Nice flavor for a summer treat. This is probably the creamiest smoothie I have ever had. It has the consistency of yogurt.
