About this smoothie

Banana, pineapple and passion fruit are a classic tropical trio found in many juice bars. The banana provides body and sweetness, pineapple juiciness and vitamin C, and a single passion fruit gives the whole drink its unmistakable fragrance.

The passion fruit seeds stay in the smoothie as small dark specks and add a gentle crunch. Agave syrup is optional and only needed if your fruit is not fully ripe. Vegan and quick, it is a sunny way to start the day.

Bartender tips

  • Wrinkled passion fruit are ripe and the most aromatic.
  • Freeze the banana in slices for a thicker, colder smoothie.

Variations

With mango
Replace half of the pineapple with mango for an even creamier, sweeter drink.
