📝 Recipe Ingredients

This delicious tropical pineapple mango smoothie is made with fresh fruit and milk. Here is what you will need to make it:

Mango: Any mango will work great for this recipe. You can buy fresh mango and freeze it or buy frozen mango from the supermarket. I don’t recommend using canned pineapple or mango as they have very high sugar content.

Pineapple: The same goes for pineapple. Whether fresh or frozen, make sure to opt for the best quality you can find. Your smoothie will only be as good as the fruit you use.

Milk: I love using light coconut milk to make this smoothie, but you can also use dairy milk or unsweetened almond milk if you prefer. You can even use coconut water.

How To Make It

Step 1: If not using frozen fruit, peel and cut the fresh fruit into bite-sized pieces and freeze them in a freezer-safe Ziploc bag for a couple of hours (or up to 3 months).

Step 2: Add the frozen pineapple and mango pieces to a high-speed blender. Add milk and one tablespoon of honey (optional) to the blender. Blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 3: Pour the smoothie into a glass, add some coconut flakes, and enjoy!

That’s it – a delicious and nutritious Mango Pineapple Smoothie made in just three simple steps. Depending on your preference, you can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey. 

Enjoy!

💡 Pro Tips

  • To make a really good smoothie you need ripe fruit. If your mango or pineapple are green and lack flavor don’t expect your smoothie to be nice and sweet. 
  • Use frozen fruit. Using frozen fruit instead of fresh will make your smoothie extra smooth and preserve the flavor because it doesn’t dilute the fruit with water from ice.
  • Use a high-speed blender such as NutribuletMagic Bullet blender, or similar. The more power your blender has the creamier the smoothie.

❄️ How To Store

Like any other smoothie, this mango and pineapple smoothie tastes best when freshly made. However, if you have any leftovers, simply store the smoothie in the fridge for 3-4 hours until ready to enjoy some more.

I would not recommend freezing smoothies unless you want to make popsicles. A defrosted smoothie will be watery and mushy, and it will lose most of its nutrients.
