Creamy and tropical with sweet banana, aromatic passion fruit and a fresh yogurt tang.
About this smoothie
Passion fruit and yogurt are a popular pairing in desserts and breakfast bowls, because the fruit's sharp aroma cuts through the creamy dairy. Banana adds sweetness and body, so no sugar is needed.
The yogurt contributes protein and calcium, making the smoothie more filling than a fruit-only version. It suits breakfast or a snack after sport and is quick to make with three main ingredients.
Bartender tips
Greek yogurt makes the smoothie thicker and creamier.
Choose a wrinkled passion fruit: the skin shrivels as it ripens and the pulp gets sweeter.
Variations
With coconut
Replace the water with coconut milk for a richer, more tropical version.
