FAQ

What if I don't have frozen strawberries?

You can use fresh strawberries instead but add a few extra ice cubes so it stays cold and thick.

Can I substitute regular water for the coconut water?

Yes you can use water but it might lose some of that tropical taste, so coconut water is best if it's available.

Do I need to chop the fruits into smaller pieces?

Its best to slice the banana and use pineapple chunks that are cut already so your blender has an easier time mixin' up the ingredients.

How thick is the smoothie gonna be?

It should be a medium thick consistency thats creamy enough to be filling but still easy to drink.

Can I add other fruits to this recipe?

You sure can try adding mango or kiwi if you like to play around with the flavours but keep in mind the taste will change a bit.

Aloha Tropical Smoothie Recipe Substitutions and Variations

For the ripe banana, you might try using mango slices instead if you want a different tropical creaminess.
If you don’t have strawberries, raspberries or even blueberries can work well in their place.
Instead of pineapple chunks, try using papaya or more mango chunks for an extra twist.
Coconut water can be swapped with a diluted coconut milk mix to get that coconut flavor, though it will be a bit creamier.
If orange juice isn’t available, a blend of tangerine juice with a splash of lemon juice can give a similar bright citrus kick.

Pro Tips

1. If u wanna have a thicker and creamier smoothie, try freezeing your banana slices or even the pineapple a bit before blending it all together.
2. Dont be afraid to throw in a tiny bit of honey or a couple mint leaves if youre feelin adventurous; a little extra flavor can really lift the taste.
3. When blending, pulse in short bursts rather than a continuous blend so you dont end up with any overly chunky bits.
4. If your smoothie comes out too thick, add a little more coconut water or orange juice gradually until you get the perfect consistency.
