Ingredients

  • ½ cup greek vanilla yogurt
  • ¼ cup whole milk
  • Ice cubes optional

  • Add all the ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a tall glass and sip with a straw.

Notes

Use ripe fruit that you freeze yourself for the best flavor. If your bananas are on the brown side, they will add a touch of sweetness to the smoothie.
Add a little bit of pineapple juice to the blender for extra sweetness and Tang.
Add some acidity. A little bit of lemon or lime juice will help to brighten up the flavors of the pineapple and banana.
Use fresh or frozen fruit. If you're using fresh fruit, add more ice to the blender to help create a thick, creamy texture.
How to freeze fruits: Cut the banana and pineapple into small chunks or slices and spread the pieces into a plate or baking dish lined with parchment paper. Put in the freezer for at least 3 hours, and transfer the frozen pieces to an airtight container or ziplock bag to store in the freezer for up to 6 months.
