The sweetness of the fruit is balanced nicely with the slightly tart pineapple. Without adding more than a hint of coconut flavor, coconut water creates a much lighter smoothie than the alternative dairy based smoothies.
My family is laughably passionate in their love of smoothies. One almost any given day, you’re likely to find our blender on the counter making smoothies in almost every color of the rainbow.
From Green Smoothies that don’t taste the tiniest bit green, to dozens of fruit and vegetable filled smoothie recipes, all the way to my boys’ beloved Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Smoothie, their Blueberry Chia Spinach Smoothie, and my personal favorite, the Pina Colada Smoothie, there is sure to be a smoothie for everyone’s tastes!
Kitchen Tip: I use this blender to make this recipe.

Mary says
Coconut water should be available at nearly any grocery store and definitely at a health food store. You can find it with the sodas/juices/bottled waters. I hope that helps!
