2-Ingredient Pineapple Smoothie (No Banana!)
Description
The recipe combines chopped pineapple with coconut water and ice (or frozen pineapple) blended until smooth. The pineapple provides natural sweetness and a vibrant tropical flavor, while the coconut water adds a mild, nutritious base that keeps the texture light. Using ice creates chill and dilution without overpowering the fruit's brightness. This simple blend yields a creamy and fresh smoothie suitable for hot weather or as a healthy snack.
This smoothie works well on its own or can accompany breakfast foods, light lunches, or act as a palate cleanser. It suits those avoiding bananas but wanting a fruit-forward, hydrating beverage.
Optional add-ins like passion fruit, strawberries, mango, spinach, kale, or Greek yogurt can customize flavor, add creaminess, or boost nutrition. Any leftovers keep in an airtight container in the fridge up to 2 days and can be frozen in ice cube trays to reblend later.
Ingredients
- 2 cups pineapple 150 g, chopped
- ½ cup coconut water can sub milk or coconut milk, 120 mL
- 2 cups ice alternatively, freeze pineapple before blending
Instructions

Notes
