?
Since today is Friday,?I wanted to share with with a quick and easy recipe for Easy Pina Colada Smoothie.?I’m not much of a drinker so this version is non-alcoholic.? But, but don’t worry, for those?who would like an added kick, I added a tip at the bottom that may be more to your liking.?? :)
I haven’t shared a smoothie recipe in a while,?so an urge came over me today.? First, I looked to see what ingredients I had on hand.??Hmmm…not much there,?I?SO need to make a grocery run. With the heat index as high as it got today, ummm, I don’t think so.? I checked around and suprisingly had a?can of?pineapple chunks, coconut milk and some pineapple juice which landed the?idea of pina colada.??
Being that I love Paula Deen,? I pulled up one of her recipes and figured I would?start there.? The recipe called for a few things on the list I didn’t have, but with a few?modications?it?STILL came out PERFECT!??The easy part of this recipe really stands?true.??It took me only a couple of minutes and……
I think it came out DELICIOUS!
Pina Colada Smoothie
slightly modified from Paula’s Smoothie Recipe
1/4 cup pineapple chunks
1/4 cup pineapple juice?
1 cup coconut milk
about 2 cups of? ice, or enough?to half fill the blender
1 slice of pineapple, optional
1 cherry, option
Instructions
Place ice, pineapple chunks, juice and coconut cream?into a blender, mix?and serve.
As?I mentioned above the??cherry and slice of pineapple is optional for garnishing.? Also, for those who would like to spice it up a bit and add a little?buzz, you can add some rum to your liking.?
Enjoy!?
