Tropical Sunrise Smoothie Recipe

• Servings: 2

• Prep Time: 10 minutes

• Total Time: 10 minutes

Ingredients:

For the Pineapple Bottom:

• 1 large banana

• 1/2 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)

• 1/2 cup plant-based milk (like coconut or soy)

• A pinch of ground turmeric (for color)

For the Strawberry Top:

• 1 cup strawberries (fresh or frozen)

• 1/2 cup coconut water or plant-based milk

Topping:

• A thin, round slice of pineapple, cut to resemble a sun shape

Instructions:

1. Make the Pineapple Bottom: Blend the banana, pineapple chunks, plant-based yogurt, and turmeric until smooth. Pour this into the bottom half of your glasses. This is the blender I use to get the smoothest blend.

   
   

2. Rinse your Blender: Quick rinse to keep colors separate.

   
   

3. Make the Strawberry Top: Blend the strawberries, coconut water/plant-based milk, 1/2 banana, and lime juice until smooth. Gently pour or spoon this over the pineapple layer.

   
   

4. Add the Pineapple Sun: Place the artistically cut pineapple slice on top.

   
   

5. Serve Immediately: Enjoy your visually stunning and tropical-flavored smoothie!
