“Absolutely delish! So relaxing, feels like I should be drinking this while swinging in a hammock.”

Easy Tropical, a popular BlendJet smoothie recipe, is like a mini tropical vacation in a glass, whisking you away to sandy beaches and sunshine with every sip. The luscious mango and vibrant pineapple blend perfectly, offering a sweet and tangy taste that’s utterly refreshing.

Coconut water adds a light, hydrating base, while the coconut yogurt envelops everything in a creamy, dreamy texture that’s simply divine. It’s the perfect pick-me-up on a warm day or whenever you need a little burst of sunshine in your life.

This tropical delight is not just about tantalizing your taste buds, it’s also brimming with health benefits. Mangoes and pineapples are rich in vitamins A and C, antioxidants, and enzymes that aid digestion and boost immunity. Coconut water is a natural hydration hero, packed with electrolytes to keep you refreshed and revitalized. The addition of coconut yogurt not only adds creaminess but also provides probiotics for a happy, healthy gut.

PineapplesPineapples are popular tangy tropical fruit that, surprising to most, originated in South America, not Hawaii. They are absolutely loaded with antioxidants and nutrients, including a ridiculously high amount of vitamin C (1 serving = 131% of the recommended daily intake), manganese, vitamin B6, and thiamin.

Equipment Needed

BlendJet Smoothie Making Tools
BlendJet Smoothie Making Tools

A standard blender is all that is required to make BlendJet smoothies. If you are making a smoothie for just one person, we recommend using the amazingly portable BlendJet 2 as as it is quick to set up and very easy to clean. 

If you are making them for more than one person, we recommend a higher-end Vitamix blender that can process larger loads more efficiently.

For overnight storage, we recommend using a glass or BPA-free airtight container with a resealable lid.


How To Make The Easy Tropical Smoothie

The BlendJet Easy Tropical smoothie is very easy to make:

  • Step 1: Place mango, pineapple, coconut water, and coconut yogurt into a BlendJet blender and secure the lid.
  • Step 2: Start the blender on its lowest speed and steadily ramp up to its highest speed. This will reduce wear and tear on the motor and blades, facilitate a more consistent blend, and help prevent food splatter onto the lid and sides.
  • Step 3: Blend for approximately 30 seconds or until a smooth consistency is achieved.
  • Step 4: Pour into a glass for immediate refreshment or place in the refrigerator in an airtight container to enjoy later.

Recipe Tips And Substitutions

If you don’t have frozen fruit, or simply prefer to use fresh fruit (we totally get that), we recommend adding 1/2 cup of ice to chill your smoothie and give it a pleasing icy texture.

Try adding a banana for extra creaminess and a natural sweetener, or throw in some spinach or kale for a green boost without overwhelming the tropical flavors.

If coconut isn’t your thing, almond milk and a dollop of Greek yogurt can work wonders as substitutes, maintaining that creamy texture while offering a new flavor profile.

Smoothie Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular yogurt instead of coconut yogurt in this smoothie?

Absolutely, you can! Regular yogurt, especially Greek yogurt for extra protein, can be a great substitute for coconut yogurt if you prefer a less tropical taste or if it’s what you have on hand. The smoothie will still have a lovely creamy texture, and the tanginess of the yogurt will complement the sweet fruits beautifully.

What can I use instead of coconut water if I don’t have any?

No coconut water, no problem! You can easily substitute it with plain water for hydration without altering the fruit flavors too much. If you’re looking to keep the tropical vibe going, try adding a splash of pineapple juice or even orange juice for an extra fruity kick. Just keep in mind that these juices may add more sweetness to your smoothie.
