Pina Colada Smoothie

 
pina colada smoothie recipe
 

This refreshing blend captures the essence of a classic cocktail with a nutritious twist. Begin with a base of coconut milk for that authentic pina colada flavor. For a hint of fun, you can add a dash of rum extract (optional) to enhance the tropical experience. Boost your protein intake with two scoops of coconut or vanilla protein, and for an extra collagen kick, consider adding a scoop of collagen or 1/3 cup of Greek yogurt.

Now, for the tropical magic, include 5-6 pineapple chunks, whether they're frozen or fresh, and toss in some frozen coconut chunks or unsweetened coconut flakes. To give this smoothie an extra fiber boost, you can add 1-2 tablespoons of psyllium husk.

If you're feeling adventurous, consider adding frozen riced cauliflower for extra nutrition, but if you prefer a lighter texture, simply add a cup of ice. A dash of pink salt rounds out the flavors and enhances the overall taste.

Blend it all together, and you'll have a Pina Colada Smoothie that's a tropical paradise in a glass, perfect for a quick getaway to the islands or a refreshing treat anytime. Cheers to a healthy and delicious escape!
