Notes
- Make sure to use sweet tasting pineapples to make the smoothie.
- If you like you can add any sweetener of your choice to the smoothie - raw sugar, honey, jaggery, palm sugar, coconut sugar, maple syrup are some options.
- If the pineapples are very sweet, you can choose to omit add any sweetener.
- The recipe works well with both homemade coconut milk as well as packaged coconut milk. Lite coconut milk works best here. If you are using regular canned coconut milk, then add some water or coconut water to thin the smoothie.
- Feel free to use other plant based milks like almond milk, oats milk or cashew milk to make the smoothie.
- Skip adding ground cinnamon if you do not like it.
