Recipe Notes

  • Milk: For more tropical flavor, use coconut milk. Your smoothie will taste more like a piña colada! Start with just ½ cup of your milk of choice, and add more as needed to perfect the consistency.
  • Yogurt: Use plain or flavored yogurt, whichever you prefer. Strawberry, vanilla, banana, or pineapple yogurt would all work well. Flavored yogurts will change the overall flavor slightly.
  • Make it Vegan: Use vegan yogurt and plant-based milk. Use dates or maple syrup to sweeten. 
  • Make it Paleo: Use almond yogurt (like Kite Hill) or coconut cream instead of yogurt, and coconut milk instead of milk.
