Frozen berries do two jobs here: they chill the smoothie and turn it a deep berry red. Pineapple adds tropical sweetness and a bright acidity.
150 g
pineapple peeled, diced
75 g
frozen mixed berries
½
banana
1½ tbsp
natural yogurt
5 oz
water

Cold and thick, with juicy pineapple, tart mixed berries and a creamy banana finish.
This is an easy all year smoothie, because frozen berry mixes are always available and are usually frozen soon after harvest. Berries bring colour, fibre and vitamin C, pineapple adds juiciness and a sweet sharpness, and banana gives the drink body. A spoon of yoghurt rounds everything off.
The smoothie fits breakfast, a snack or the time after a workout. Because the berries are frozen, you need no ice, and the texture comes out thick and almost frosty.
Yes. Add a few ice cubes to keep the smoothie cold and thick.
Not with dairy yoghurt; swap it for a plant based yoghurt.
Yes, use pineapple in its own juice and drain it; the smoothie will be slightly sweeter.
