Smoothie season is well & truly upon us (instantly jinxes the weather, cue rain for the rest of the summer!). Truth be told, I actually enjoy smoothies year round and vary the flavours depending on whether I want a grab & go breakfast, something to satisfy a mid-afternoon sweet craving or a pre/ post workout energy boost. This one really is summery though, thanks to the classic combination of pineapple and coconut which makes it both fresh and sweet tasting at the same time. You might recognise this as being pretty similar to my Pina Colada Smoothie, albeit with a twist to make it thicker, creamier and even more indulgent.
