Pineapple Coconut Smoothie

Fresh fruit, creamy but light coconut milk beverage, and fresh juice combine to make this refreshing dairy-free pineapple coconut smoothie recipe by Julie Hasson.

As is, this dairy-free pineapple coconut smoothie is loaded with vitamin C from the juice, vitamin D and vitamin B12 from the coconut milk beverage, and a surprising bonus: digestive enzymes from the pineapple. Pineapple contains bromelain, which is thought to have anti-inflammatory powers in addition to it’s protein digesting powers.
