Yay for warm, summer weather! Utah has had some crazy temps that last few weeks—even a bit of snow—and it’s nice to finally see some serious sunshine. And though I’m fully aware you can drink protein smoothies all year long, I find them extra refreshing from May to September. My favorite smoothies involve pineapple because it’s as close to the tropics as I’m going to get for a while. If it has coconut like this pineapple coconut protein smoothie, even better!

As far as I’m concerned, pineapple and coconut is as heavenly a combination as peanut butter and chocolate. This protein smoothie has the perfect combination of pineapple and coconut flavors and uses unsweetened coconut milk and unsweetened shredded coconut to help limit the amount of added sugar. It also has a boost of vanilla flavor and protein thanks to french vanilla protein powder from Purely Inspired. So basically it’s as good for you as eating celery.
