Pineapple, chia and coconut milk smoothie
Before our warm weather completely fades away, I wanted to make a tropical smoothie with a bright flavour and thought pineapple might make things interesting.
I loved how creamy and naturally sweet this was! It reminded me of Malibu and pineapple (but not in a bad way, more of a palm trees swaying, warm breezes, lying on the beach way).
And do you like my little giraffe? A few years back I received a cocktail set as a gift with a lot of cute little umbrellas and figurines (very 70s, I love it) and thought a couple would be perfect for this smoothie.
Recipe for tropical smoothie:
200g pineapple, diced
1 x 15ml tblspn ground black chia or flax seeds
100mls full fat coconut milk
40-60mls water
10mls agave nectar or honey (optional)
1 tspn desiccated coconut (optional)
Use blender to process ingredients until thick and creamy.
Pour into large glass and sprinkle over desiccated coconut to serve if you like.
Serves: 1 large

Yum! I’ve been on a pineapple kick lately and this sounds like another delicious variation. The giraffe is totally adorable
Mmmmm, delicious! I’m also trying to get my fave smoothies and cold dishes in before winter comes-a-knockin’. Gorgeous photos.
