- ½ pineapple
- 1 banana
- A handful of mint, leaves only
- 125g dairy free coconut yogurt
- A few ice cubes
- 1.
Slice the leaves off the pineapple and halve it. Wrap 1 half and set aside in the fridge for another day (see our tip below on what to do with it). Take the remaining half and slice off the skin. Use the tip of your knife to scoop out any tough ‘eyes’ left behind in the pineapple. Roughly chop the pineapple, discarding any woody bits of core. Add the pineapple to the blender.

Peel the banana and break it into the blender. Add the mint leaves and coconut yogurt with a handful of ice cubes. Blitz, pour into glasses and serve.
