Ingredients
- 1 cup unsweetened coconut milk chilled
- 1 cup frozen banana slices about 1 medium banana
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks fresh or frozen

- 1 tbsp coconut oil unrefined, melted

Notes
Storage: Best enjoyed immediately, but can be refrigerated in an airtight container for up to 24 hours—shake or stir before serving as separation may occur. Make-Ahead: Freeze pre-portioned banana and pineapple in bags for quick assembly. Substitutions: Use almond milk or oat milk instead of coconut milk; swap spirulina with matcha powder for a different green boost. For a thicker texture, add more frozen fruit or a handful of spinach.
