How To Make A Bahama Mama Tropical Smoothie

If you're looking for a delicious, refreshing tropical treat, a Bahama Mama smoothie is for you. This creamy, fruity drink is sure to hit the spot on a hot day, or any day for that matter. Best of all, it's quick and easy to make.

To get started, gather your ingredients. You'll need one cup of pineapple juice, one cup of orange juice, one banana, one cup of frozen mango, one cup of light coconut milk, and one tablespoon of honey.

Begin by adding the pineapple juice and orange juice to a blender. Peel and slice the banana and add it to the blender as well. Add the frozen mango, coconut milk, and honey. Pulse the blender a few times to combine the ingredients.

Once the ingredients are combined, blend on high speed until the mixture is smooth. If the mixture is too thick, add a little more pineapple juice or coconut milk. If it's too thin, add a few more cubes of mango.

Garnish and Serve

When the mixture is smooth and creamy, pour it into glasses and garnish with a sprig of mint or a pineapple wedge. Serve the Bahama Mama smoothie cold and enjoy!

Variations

If you'd like to try something different, there are plenty of variations on this classic recipe. You can add different fruits or juices, such as strawberry, blueberry, or guava. You can also add spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, or vanilla extract. If you'd like a stronger coconut flavor, use cream of coconut instead of light coconut milk.

For a thicker smoothie, add one cup of ice cubes and blend until smooth. Or, if you prefer your smoothie on the lighter side, skip the ice cubes and add a little more pineapple juice or coconut milk.

Tips

To keep your smoothie cold, you can either pre-chill the pineapple juice and coconut milk or add a few ice cubes to the blender before blending. For an extra-frothy texture, add a few tablespoons of Greek yogurt or almond milk.

If you're feeling adventurous, you can also add a shot of rum or coconut rum for an adult twist. The possibilities are endless, so have fun and experiment with different flavors.
