Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 10 minutes
Servings: 2
Skill Level: Easy
Ingredients:

  • 1 cup ripe guava, peeled and chopped
  • 1 cup pineapple chunks (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 ripe banana
  • 1/2 cup mango chunks (fresh or frozen)
  • 1 cup coconut water
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 tablespoon honey (optional, for extra sweetness)
  • Ice cubes (optional, for a thicker consistency)
  • Mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions:

  1. In your blender, combine the guava, pineapple chunks, banana, and mango chunks.
  2. Pour in the coconut water and add the Greek yogurt. If you prefer a sweeter smoothie, drizzle in the honey.
  3. Blend on high speed until smooth and creamy, pausing to scrape down the sides if necessary. The aroma of fresh tropical fruits will start to fill your kitchen!
  4. If you like your smoothie extra thick and cold, add a handful of ice cubes and blend again until the ice is crushed and fully incorporated.
  5. Pour the smoothie into chilled glasses. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an extra touch of freshness and a beautiful presentation.
Helpful Tips and Variations:

  • Substitute guava with papaya or another favorite tropical fruit if guava isn’t available.
  • For a dairy-free option, replace Greek yogurt with a plant-based yogurt like coconut yogurt.
  • Hosting a summer party? Serve the smoothie in colorful mason jars with paper straws for a festive touch.
Storage and Substitutions:

  • Refrigerate any remaining smoothie in an airtight container for up to 1 day. Shake well before serving.
  • If fresh guava isn’t in season, canned guava in natural juice can be used instead.
Pairings and Complements:

  • This Tropical Guava Smoothie pairs wonderfully with breakfast staples like avocado toast or a bowl of granola.
  • For a delightful dessert, serve alongside a tropical fruit salad or light coconut cookies.
