Why You Will Love This Strawberry Banana Pineapple Smoothie
This tropical strawberry pineapple smoothie is made without any added sweeteners, or anything artificial. It’s made using whole real fruit.
On top of that, the smoothie contains gut-friendly yogurt that adds protein and extra creaminess.
Here’s an overview of why I think you will love this smoothie as much as me:
- Delicious Taste: The combination of sweet pineapple, ripe banana, and tangy strawberries creates a refreshingly delicious taste that appeals to all ages, making it a hit for both adults and children.
- Versatility: This smoothie is versatile enough to serve as a breakfast on the go, a rejuvenating post-workout drink, or a satisfying afternoon snack, fitting easily into any part of your day.
- Quick and Easy Preparation: With simple ingredients and a quick blend, it’s ideal for busy mornings or when you need a nutritious snack without a lot of prep time.
- Customizable: Easily adaptable to dietary preferences or restrictions, you can swap out ingredients, adjust proportions, or add extras like protein powder or other fruits to tailor it to your taste and nutritional needs.
- Natural Sweetness: The natural sweetness from the fruits means there’s no need for added sugars, making it a healthier alternative to sugar beverages while still satisfying sweet cravings.
- Hydration Boost: Along with its nutritional benefits, the smoothie’s high water content, particularly from the fruits and almond milk, contributes to daily hydration needs.

Smoothie Variations & Recipe Notes
Customize the recipe easily with my suggestions below:
- No Banana Variation: If you don’t like bananas, you can use mango instead.
- The Base: Instead of almond milk, you can use any milk of your choice. I have tried both soy and oat milk, and both worked well. Just make sure you use unsweetened.
- The Seeds: Instead of chia seeds, you can use flaxseeds or hemp hearts.
- For a Vegan Smoothie: If you are vegan, use vegan yogurt. I love coconut yogurt.
- Boost The Protein: Add a scoop of protein powder for extra protein. Preferably use unsweetened and unflavored protein powder.
- No Yogurt? Use cottage cheese instead or a large avocado.

All my blenders did a good job with this recipe except my Blendjet. It couldn’t blend the smoothie as smoothly as the other blenders.
That doesn’t mean the Blendjet won’t work with the recipe, it simply won’t blend it as well as a higher-speed blender.
