Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks for a thick, cold texture
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk or almond milk or any plant-based milk
- 1 inch fresh ginger peeled and roughly chopped
- 1 tsp ground turmeric or ½ inch fresh turmeric, peeled
- 1 tbsp fresh lime juice about half a lime
- 1 tbsp maple syrup or honey optional, for sweetness
- 1 cup ice cubes optional, for extra thickness
Notes
For a protein boost, add a scoop of vanilla or unflavored plant-based protein powder. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours; shake or stir well before drinking as separation may occur. This recipe is naturally vegan and gluten-free. For a creamier texture, use canned full-fat coconut milk. To make ahead, pre-portion the solid ingredients (pineapple, ginger) into freezer bags for a quick grab-and-blend morning routine.
