    Why youโ€™ll love this recipe

    • Packed with nutrients: Rich in vitamins, antioxidants, and fiber, this blueberry pineapple smoothie is a healthy choice that still tastes indulgent.
    • Customizable: You can customize it with your preferred plant milk, add protein powder for a post-workout boost, or sweeten it with maple syrup.
    • Kid-friendly: With its sweet flavors and vibrant color, this smoothie is a hit with little ones and a great way to get them to consume more fruits.
    • Refreshing taste: The combination of blueberry and pineapple provides a refreshing tropical flavor that's invigorating and satisfying.

    Antioxidant-boosting smoothie

    This blueberry pineapple smoothie is your ticket to a youthful glow! Itโ€™s packed with antioxidant-rich blueberries, digestive enzymes from pineapple, fiber, and protein, just like my mango pineapple smoothie and lemon smoothie.

    Itโ€™s ready in less than 5 minutes, making it the perfect solution for busy mornings or when you need a quick snack. All you need is a blender and 5 ingredients.

    The combination of blueberries and pineapple creates the perfect balance between sweet and tart, while the banana and soy milk add a smooth, creamy base that ties all the flavors together.

    Ingredients & Substitutions

    Blueberry pineapple smoothie ingredients laid out on a cutting board with labels.
    • Blueberries: Blueberries add a sweet and slightly tart flavor. You can use fresh or frozen blueberries here, or substitute them with strawberries or mixed berries for a twist.
    • Pineapple chunks: Add a tropical sweetness and tang. Again, you can use fresh or frozen pineapple. Mango chunks are a great alternative for a different tropical taste.
    • Banana: Provides creaminess and natural sweetness to the smoothie. Make sure your banana is extra spotty for the best results. Avocado can be used as a substitute for a less sweet, creamier texture.
    • Soy milk: Adds a smooth, creamy base and gives the smoothie a protein boost. Almond milk, coconut milk, or oat milk are all great alternatives.
    • Maple syrup: Gives the smoothie a natural sweetness. Adjust the amount based on your preference or the ripeness of the fruit. Agave also works as an alternative.
    • Protein powder (Optional): Increases the protein content, making the smoothie more filling. This is optional and can be omitted or replaced with a flavored protein powder if you prefer.

    How to make this smoothie

    This blueberry pineapple smoothie is so quick and easy to whip together! All you have to do is combine the blueberries, pineapple, banana, plant milk, maple syrup, and protein powder in a blender.

    Blend until smooth, adding more milk as necessary if your blender blades arenโ€™t moving. You may need to add more or less liquid depending on if you use frozen or fresh fruit. Once blended, pour the smoothie into a serving glass and enjoy immediately!

    Storage

    This blueberry pineapple smoothie tastes best when itโ€™s enjoyed immediately, but hereโ€™s what to do if you end up with leftovers:

    • Fridge: Store it in an airtight container, like a mason jar with a lid, for up to 24 hours.
    • Freezer: Pour the smoothie into ice cube trays and freeze them for future use. Once frozen, transfer the cubes to a freezer bag or airtight container.
    • Prep ahead: You can prep fresh fruits ahead for quick and convenient smoothies later on. Freeze them in a single layer on a baking sheet, then transfer them to freezer bags.

    Variations

    • Greens: Add a handful of spinach or kale for a nutrient boost.
    • Berries: Instead of just blueberries, add strawberries, raspberries, and blackberries.
    • Chocolatey: Add a tablespoon of cocoa powder for a chocolatey twist.
    • Nutty: Blend in almond butter or peanut butter for a rich flavor and texture.
    • Zesty: Add a teaspoon of lemon, lime, or orange zest for a refreshing citrus taste.
    • Protein: Swap unflavored protein powder for vanilla or chocolate protein for extra flavor.
    • Oats: Add ยผ cup of rolled oats before blending for a thicker, more filling smoothie.
    • Spice it up: Include a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg for a warm spice note and an extra kick of antioxidants.

    Top tips

    • Use frozen fruit: For a thicker, colder smoothie without needing ice, I recommend using pre-frozen fruit or freezing your own fresh fruit.
    • High-speed blender: Use a high-speed blender for the smoothest consistency and most even distribution of flavors.
    • Layer correctly: Add your liquids first and solids last for easier blending.
    • Taste as you go: Taste and adjust the ingredients as you see fit, especially the sweetener and soy milk, before a final blending.
    • Clean your blender right away: Clean your blender immediately to avoid smoothie residue from sticking.

    FAQ

    Can I make this smoothie ahead of time?

    You can, but it's best when consumed right after blending. To save time, I recommend measuring and portioning out the fruit and storing it in the freezer until youโ€™re ready.

    Can I add ice to the smoothie?

    Yes, but it might water down the flavors. Frozen fruit is a better option for cooling the smoothie. However, if you use fresh fruit, I recommend adding ice to properly chill your drink.

    How can I thicken my smoothie?

    If youโ€™re smoothie isnโ€™t thick enough, add more frozen fruit or a tablespoon of chia seeds and let it sit for a few minutes before blending again.
