Hot outside? Beat the heat with a Watermelon Pineapple Smoothie for a breakfast, lunch or snack. Recipe makes 3 cold, delicious servings!
Smoothies are a wonderful “go to” recipe for me when the temperatures rise outside. Sometimes it feels too warm to prepare a hot breakfast, and that’s where a filling smoothie comes in handy!
I love to make smoothies, and have made quite a few over the years. When I want a light breakfast, a fruit smoothie is one of my preferred choices. A smoothie fills me up without being too heavy.
This cold, refreshing, watermelon pineapple smoothie recipe is easy to make, and has a yummy flavor combo of watermelon, pineapple and coconut.
Plain Greek yogurt adds great protein and creaminess to the smoothie, which in my book is an added plus! Here’s how to make it.

What Ingredients Will I Need?
To make the watermelon pineapple smoothies you will need canned coconut milk (regular or light), plain Greek yogurt (regular or nonfat), crushed pineapple, and cold, sweet watermelon.
You will also need crushed ice, which will help make the smoothies cold and slightly thickened. A blender or food processor is also necessary to mix the smoothie.
A Word About Canned Coconut Milk
You can use either regular or light canned coconut milk for these smoothies. I typically use “regular” coconut milk to make this type of smoothie, but it is your choice.
Canned coconut milk can typically be found in most grocery stores, usually in their Asian Foods section. It is thick and creamy, and provides wonderful flavor, so don’t skip this!
Important Tip: Canned coconut milk is very thick (and separated) when the can is first opened. Be sure to give it a good stir in the can to fully blend the milk before using.
Time To Make The Smoothie
Place the smoothie ingredients into a blender or food processor (including the crushed ice). Process or blend these ingredients until smooth in texture.
If you want the smoothies slightly thicker, add a bit more coconut milk (still some left in the can!) and/or crushed ice until the smoothie reaches your desired consistency.
Time For A Cold Watermelon Pineapple Smoothie!
Once the watermelon pineapple smoothie is blended, pour each serving into a glass. This recipe will yield enough for 3 small servings, so divide the mixture evenly into three glasses.
Garnish the cold smoothie with a wedge of watermelon (if desired), stick a straw in the cup, and enjoy! See how easy it was to make this smoothie?
The watermelon pineapple smoothie is creamy, light pink in color, cold and refreshing, especially on a HOT day!
This smoothie’s taste is a good combination of watermelon, pineapple and coconut flavors. None of them overpowers the others.
I hope you enjoy this watermelon pineapple smoothie! Thanks for stopping by, and please come back soon for more family friendly recipes. Take care, may God bless you, and have a GREAT day!
