Notes
If using fresh pineapple, add about 1 cup of ice cubes for a cold, frosty texture.
For extra protein and creaminess, add vanilla, plain, coconut, or Greek yogurt.
Try adding mango, banana, or papaya for additional tropical flavor.
A handful of spinach can be blended in for extra nutrients.
Use full-fat coconut milk for a richer smoothie.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours and stir before serving.
