TROPICAL SMOOTHIE WITH STRAWBERRIES
Because it is more fun to drink your fruits than eat them!One of the most charming ways to give the goodness of fruits to children,tropical fruits - pineapple,banana and coconut unite with strawberries in this yummy smoothie.
I am also sending this recipe to Vardhini's New "U" event,and The January Detox which is the current theme of Breakfast Club.
Preparation Time : 2 minutes
Servings : 1
INGREDIENTS
75 ml pineapple juice - chilled
60 ml coconut milk - preferably fresh or from a can
1 small banana - peeled
40 gm strawberries - hulled
5 ice cubes
TO SERVE:
1 strawberry
METHOD
Put all the ingredients in a blender and blend them to a light pink,cold,refreshing smoothie.METHOD
Pour into a glass,and place the remaining strawberry on the rim as garnish,and a cocktail umbrella,for some exotic touch.
NOTE
Fresh or canned coconut milk has been used in this recipe since the one made from powder will not give the sweetness or thickness that is required.

Hi Fahad loving the blog it's Mr Grub from the Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/JustGrub
Looks and must taste great as well ! I have always been partial for strawberry based drinks but this smoothie is exceptional !
Made it but i only had a tin of pineapple pieces so i puréed it and added, made it a bit thick but was nice I have never thought of adding coconut milk I usually add icecream or yoghurt to my smoothies, but i will make this one again quite liked it :) thank you Fahad Khan
Hi.. regarding your question.. the no oil/butter version is good too. But when you add that 1 tablespoon of fat, your cake is more soft & fluffy. Not adding it makes not much of a difference when you eat it warm.
Loving all the refreshing drinks and smoothies that you have linked .. lovely color and tasty drink.
