Description
A refreshing, tropical smoothie with the tangy zing of lime, the sweetness of pineapple, and the creamy richness of banana, mimicking the flavor of a key lime pie in a healthy, drinkable form.
Ingredients
12 oz coconut water
½ banana, frozen
½ cup pineapple, frozen
1 scoop vanilla protein powder
1 lime, peel on
1 handful baby spinach
1 dash cinnamon
1 dash Tajín (optional for a spicy kick)
Instructions
- Add all of the ingredients into a powerful blender.
- Blend for about 30 seconds until smooth and creamy.
- If desired, for a beautiful presentation, dip the rim of your glass in lime juice and then dip it in Tajín seasoning. This step is optional but adds a nice touch to your drink!
- Pour the smoothie into a glass, enjoy, and feel refreshed!
Notes
- Add sweetener: If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, you can add a teaspoon of honey, maple syrup, or stevia to taste.
- Use other fruits: You can swap the pineapple with mango or berries for a different twist on the flavor.
- Boost the protein: Add a tablespoon of chia seeds or peanut butter for a richer texture.
- Make it dairy-free: Use coconut yogurt instead of protein powder or add extra frozen banana slices for creaminess.
