I keep pineapple stocked in my pantry just for smoothies like this. Now, I need to head to the store to pick up unsweetened frozen coconut. It’s already hot here and I need this smoothie to feel rejuvenated in the morning.

This looks so perfect for summer! I love ice cold smoothies as a special after dinner treat once it gets hot outside, and we love pineapple in our house!
I’m definitely going to try this for my post workout tomorrow! I have almond milk though so hopefully it won’t change too much. Thank you!
