Feel free to swap in different berries (frozen or fresh), various milks (dairy or non-dairy), kefir for yogurt, etc. Smoothies are pretty forgiving like that.
Strawberry + Pineapple + Coconut Milk
Shrink the pineapple-chopping time in half by using one of these nifty pineapple slicers(Opens in a new window) that cores the whole pineapple (which can be a beast to do) while creating neatly-sliced pineapple rings. Combine a few juicy pineapple rings with 3/4 cup of strawberries and 3/4 cup of coconut milk.
Greens + Banana + Coconut Milk
Whether you’ve got kale, spinach, or really any greens lying around, throw in a hefty handful along with a sliced banana and about 3/4 cup of coconut milk, depending on how creamy you like it. The coconut milk adds a tropical vacay vibe to this otherwise virtuous-looking green drink.
Strawberry + Nut Butter + Almond Milk
Strawberries are a wonderful little berry, don’t get us wrong, but removing those stems can be a pain. This guy(Opens in a new window) is a fun party trick; it hulls the stem in one quick twist. Combine 3/4 cup of your de-stemmed strawberries with 1 cup of almond milk and 1-2 tablespoons of your favorite nut butter (which makes this more of a borderline-milkshake, let’s be honest).
Pineapple + Banana + Greek Yogurt
Combine a few pineapple slices with 1 sliced banana and 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt. This is a thick, creamy, filling smoothie that’s always a hit.
Greens + Peach or Mango + Coconut Water
Once again, any greens will do, though we particularly liked kale in this one. Peaches or mango add a tart-sweet fruitiness along with 1 cup of coconut water (or regular water, or even milk is fine!).
