Description

This vibrant Anti-Inflammatory Pineapple Smoothie combines the bright, tropical flavors of pineapple and raspberry with the natural health benefits of turmeric and celery seeds. Perfect for a refreshing, nutrient-rich breakfast or snack, it features dairy-free milk and fresh pears for creaminess and a subtle sweetness. The smoothie is served layered with colorful portions for a visually appealing and deliciously frosty treat.

Ingredients

Pineapple Smoothie Base

  • 3 cups frozen pineapple
  • 1 1/4 cup dairy-free milk (such as almond or oat milk, add more if needed)
  • 2 fresh soft pears, cored and peeled or unpeeled (about 1 cup chopped)
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice

      • Spices and Add-ins

      • 1/2 to 1 tsp celery seeds
      • Pinch turmeric powder

        • Layering and Toppings

        • 1/4 cup raspberries
        • Fresh coconut yogurt (optional, for topping)
        • Shredded coconut (optional, for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare pineapple smoothie base: Combine frozen pineapple, dairy-free milk, pears, lemon juice, and celery seeds in a blender. Blend until smooth and frosty.
  2. Divide smoothie for layering: Pour the blended smoothie into separate portions to prepare color variations for layering.
  3. Create pink layer: Muddle raspberries or blend them into about 1/2 cup of the base smoothie to get a pink layer.
  4. Create bright yellow layer: Remove about 1/4 cup of the base smoothie and stir in a pinch of turmeric powder to create a vibrant yellow layer.
  5. Assemble the smoothie: Layer the different colored smoothie portions one on top of the other in serving glasses for a beautiful presentation.
  6. Add toppings: Top each serving with fresh coconut yogurt and shredded coconut for added texture and tropical flavor.

Notes

  • If your blender struggles with frozen fruit, allow pineapple to thaw slightly before blending.
  • Adjust the celery seed quantity to taste; it adds a subtle savory depth but can be strong.
  • Use fresh or frozen raspberries depending on availability.
  • Dairy-free milk types such as almond, oat, or coconut milk are excellent for creaminess and flavor.
  • The smoothie can be customized with other anti-inflammatory spices like ginger or cinnamon if desired.
