Start your day the right way, with a Strawberry Pina Colada Smoothie.

Yes, I know, it kinda sounds like a cocktail, but I promise you it’s a breakfast drink.

I mean, I do love, love, love those delightful cocktails, so it should come as no surprise that this smoothie is a favourite of mine.

Who are we kidding, I’m sure that’s where the inspiration came from. LOL

However, this is in fact a nutritious and good for you, meal in a glass.

It’s also delicious.

And, this winning combo of flavours really does work just as beautifully in a smoothie as it does in a cocktail.

I always make my morning smoothies with all/ mostly frozen fruits, because they help to create a nice, thick consistency.

But of course you can always use fresh fruit only, in which case you should add a few of ice cubes to compensate.

As for the addition of yogurt, which one you use is up to you.

If you follow a vegan diet, make it with a plant based yogurt that is high in protein, and if you eat dairy then choose a traditional Greek yogurt.

Using a coconut or pineapple flavoured yogurt elevates the taste that much more.

You can also use strawberry yogurt, but I find that too much strawberry overpowers the coconut and the smoothie looses that island vibe we are going for here.

Now, go and give this a try. It’s a fantastic way to start your day.

Cheers!
