Ingredients
1 ripe banana
2 cups frozen mango cubes
1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
Directions
Place the ripe banana, frozen mango cubes, frozen pineapple chunks, Greek yogurt, orange juice, water, and coconut extract into your blender.
Blend on high speed until the mixture reaches a smooth, creamy consistency with no visible chunks of fruit.
If the smoothie is too thick to blend or becomes stuck, add more orange juice or water in small amounts and blend again until desired consistency is reached. Note: different blenders may require varying amounts of additional liquid.
Pour into two glasses and serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
Comments
Every ingredient is stocked year-round at Harris Teeter, Food Lion, Publix, Walmart, ALDI, and Kroger banners in Charlotte, with no specialty stops needed. The 5-minute timer is honest—blending takes just that long—and at roughly $3.50 per serving (driven by fresh mango, which costs $1.50–$2.00 each), it sits at an acceptable weeknight price. The real caveat: smoothies do not keep or reheat well, so this is a same-morning or same-day drink, not a leftover play, and it requires someone to be present when you blend or the fruit oxidizes quickly. It's a straightforward weekday breakfast for two without fuss or supply-chain friction.
