Why You Must Make this Pineapple Smoothie Recipe

If you’ve never tried this sun-sational combination, you’re truly in for a treat with this pineapple smoothie with mango and banana! Here’s why we love it:

  • Bursting with Tropical Flavor. This smoothie tastes like sunshine in a glass! The combo of sweet mango and tangy pineapple gives it that bright, tropical vibe (like in this tropical fruit salad and tropcial mango smoothie with banana). It’s a great way to escape to the beach—no plane ticket needed!
  • Naturally Sweet Without Added Sugar. Ripe mango and pineapple are sweet all on their own. That means you usually don’t need to add any extra sugar. It’s a win for your taste buds and your body!
  • Super Easy to Make. Just toss everything in a blender and hit go. That’s it! It’s quick, fuss-free, and perfect for busy mornings or lazy afternoons.
  • Totally Customizable. You can blend it with plant-based milk, coconut water, or even dairy-free yogurt for extra creaminess. Want to add protein? Toss in some chia seeds or a scoop of protein powder. The options are endless!
  • Kid-Friendly and Crowd-Pleasing. It’s a hit with both kids and adults. Everyone loves a cold, fruity treat—especially when it looks and tastes this good. Great for quick snacks, anytime parties, or even breakfast on the go!

Key Ingredients and Substitutions

This smoothie gets its bold tropical flavor and creamy texture from frozen mango, pineapple, banana, and a splash of dairy-free milk. It’s super easy to customize with simple swaps, too. Here’s what we recommend:

Ingredients for Mango-pineapple smoothie with labels.
  • Mangos – Brings the bold, sunny flavor and natural sweetness that makes this smoothie taste like a tropical vacation. No frozen mango? Use fresh mango and toss in a few ice cubes to chill things down!
  • Pineapples – Adds a zesty kick and just the right amount of tangy goodness. If you only have canned pineapple, toss it in the freezer for an hour before blending.
  • Bananas – Makes everything smooth and silky, and it balances out the tartness from the pineapple. It also adds a little natural sweetness without overpowering the other fruit. Not a banana fan? Try frozen avocado for creaminess or a scoop of vegan yogurt!
  • Plant Milk – Makes the smoothie rich and smooth while keeping it totally dairy-free. It tones down the tanginess just a little and helps it blend to the perfect texture. Store-bought or DIY almond milk, oat beverage, cashew milk, or coconut milk all work great—go with your favorite or whatever you have on hand!
  • Pineapple Juice – A splash of pineapple juice cranks up the tropical flavor and helps everything blend smoothly. No juice? Use orange juice or coconut water for a slightly different but still yummy twist.

Tasty Toppings

This fresh and fruity smoothie recipe is quite appetizing on its own, but if you love add-ins or an extra scoop of superfoods, here are some excellent options:

  • Ground Flaxseeds or chia seeds for a boost of omega 3s and additional fiber.
  • Coconut Oil can add more richness and a subtle tropical flavor.
  • Dark Leafy Greens might change this recipe to a brilliant green color, but you’d get the additional benefit of even more fiber and tons of additional vitamins and minerals. Choose spinach or romaine leaves for a lighter flavor. Use kale, collard greens, or swiss chard for optimal nutrition, but with a slightly more bitter aftertaste.
  • Freeze-Dried Mango or Pineapple for those who love a bit of crunch and texture in their smoothie (or smoothie bowl). Sometimes, smoothies can seem a little too smooth, don’t you agree? These colorful chunks are a fantastic choice because they really pack a lot of punch and flavor.

How To Make a Pineapple Smoothie

In only three steps and less than five minutes, you can have this mango pineapple banana smoothie in your hand and ready to slurp.

Step 1: Get Out Your Blender

It’s best to have a high-speed blender for this recipe. Your smoothie will not only be smoother and creamier, but it will take a lot less time.

Step 2: Add Liquids and Fruit

Make sure to add all of the liquids before the frozen fruit. If you’re adding greens or other additions to this smoothie, remember to add them in before you add the frozen fruit.

Step 3: Blend and Enjoy!

Usually, it takes only 30 seconds (or at max, a minute) to create a super smooth consistency. Once it’s ready, pour into 1-4 serving glasses. Or, if you’re truly hungry, drink right out of the blender! (P.S. You’ll also save on washing up…he he.)

Pineapple Banana Smoothie Tips and Serving Suggestions

Serve this smoothie right after blending for the best cold and creamy texture. For a fun twist, pour it into a bowl, add your favorite toppings, and turn it into a tropical smoothie bowl!

  • Sweet & Tangy Smoothie Bowl – Reduce the plant milk by ½ cup to create a thicker consistency. Pour your smoothie into a bowl and garnish with pineapple tidbits (fresh or dried), thin strips of fresh mango, chia or hemp seeds, and a drizzle of almond or cashew butter.
  • Freeze It into Popsicles – Pour the smoothie into silicone popsicle molds and freeze for a few hours. You’ll get sweet, fruity popsicles that are perfect for hot days!
  • Turn It into a Light Dessert – Top it with a swirl of whipped coconut cream and a drizzle of maple syrup. It’s a simple way to dress it up for an after-dinner treat.
  • Boost It with Extras – Mix in a scoop of plant-based protein powder, a spoonful of flaxseeds (or chia seeds), or even a handful of spinach. You’ll get extra nutrients without changing the tropical flavor too much!
  • Add a Tropical Twist with Coconut – Blend in a splash of canned coconut milk or sprinkle toasted coconut on top. It adds a rich, creamy vibe that tastes like a beach vacation.

How Do I Store Any Leftover Pineapple Mango Smoothie?

Smoothies are always best fresh. And this one is so good that there shouldn’t be any leftovers! But if you need to save your smoothie, storing it is a breeze! Use either of these options for best post-smoothie results:

Use an Insulated Container

Just pour any extra smoothie into your favorite insulated container or water bottle. Cover and place in the fridge until ready to enjoy again. For an even better consistency, throw in a couple of frozen chunks of banana, pineapple, or mango with the smoothie and blend for just a few seconds.

Pour Into Ice Cube Trays

Grab an empty ice cube tray and fill with the smoothie leftovers. Place in the freezer until ready to use. When you’re back in the smoothie-mood, pop out the smoothie cubes and place into the blender with a bit of extra plant-based milk. Blend until creamy and smooth.

Smoothie Swaps & FAQs

Do I have to use frozen pineapple?

If you can’t find any frozen pineapple, no problem! Make sure that your banana and mango are frozen and substitute 1 cup of fresh pineapple for the frozen. Just reduce the plant-based milk by ¼ cup so that the smoothie isn’t too runny.

What can I do to make this smoothie a little sweeter?

Use sweetened, instead of unsweetened dairy-free milk. Feel free to add a tablespoon or two of agave or maple syrup to the smoothie, or a couple of soft, soaked pitted dates.

What fruits go well with mango and pineapple?

Both mango and pineapple are warm-weather, tropical fruits so they pair well with other fruits from the same climate. Choose fruits such as bananas, papaya, coconut, kiwi, and avocado to blend with pineapple and mangos.

Is pineapple and mango good for you?

Pineapples and mangos are both high in fiber and antioxidants. While mango contains more vitamin A, folate, and vitamin E, pineapples score better for manganese and vitamin C.

What is McDonald’s mango pineapple smoothie made of?

Instead of opting for anything made at McDonald’s (which will be full of chemicals and artificial flavors, while low in actual fruit content), we encourage you to give this mango pineapple smoothie recipe a try. It will not only be quick to make and very inexpensive, but our yummy smoothie will be packed with healthy ingredients such as fiber, water, vitamins, and minerals.
