How To Make coconut-pineapple smoothie for 2

  • Step 1
    Place all the ingredients in a blender and blend on HIGH speed until smooth. Start by adding 1/4 cup crushed ice (or filtered water) then more if you want a thinner smoothie. Also, it is not necessary to melt the coconut oil first. The oil is soft enough to blend thoroughly.
