Enjoy a refreshing Bahama Mama Smoothie, featuring a delightful mix of frozen pineapple, mango, and banana, blended with creamy coconut milk and a splash of orange juice. This tropical treat is perfect for warm days or a quick breakfast, and can be easily customized to match your taste preferences!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
  • 1 cup frozen mango chunks
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1 cup coconut milk (or almond milk for a lighter option)
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey or agave syrup (optional)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Ice cubes (optional)
  • Fresh fruit slices (for garnish)
  • Shredded coconut (for garnish)
  • Mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Gather all your ingredients. Peel the banana and break it into chunks. Measure out your frozen pineapple and mango chunks. Pour the coconut milk and orange juice into a measuring cup for easy access.
  2. In a high-speed blender, add the frozen pineapple chunks first.
  3. Next, add the frozen mango chunks.
  4. Toss in the banana chunks.
  5. Pour in the coconut milk and orange juice.
  6. If desired, add honey or agave syrup for sweetness.
  7. Add the vanilla extract.
  8. For a thicker smoothie, add ice cubes.
  9. Secure the lid and blend on high speed for 30-60 seconds until smooth and creamy.
  10. Taste the smoothie. If it needs more sweetness, add more honey or agave syrup and blend again. If too thick, add a splash more coconut milk or orange juice and blend until desired consistency is reached.
  11. Pour the smoothie into a glass or bowl.
  12. Garnish with fresh fruit slices, shredded coconut, and mint leaves.
  13. Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture. Pair with tropical-themed snacks or store leftovers in the fridge for a quick snack later.

Notes

  • Feel free to experiment with different fruits or add protein powder for a boost.
  • For an adult version, consider adding a splash of rum.
