Refreshing, sweet, protein-packed Pineapple Berry Smoothie: made with Greek yogurt, strawberries, blueberries and almond milk, these smoothies are perfect for breakfast or a snack.
After a long weekend of eating Foods that Shall Not Be Named, it’s time for a refreshing pineapple berry smoothie!
Erik and I spent the weekend making pizzas with all of our favorite toppings: pineapples, jalapenos, mushrooms, minced garlic and tomatoes. My goodness, these pizzas were unbelievable. They just hit every freaking spot.
But, alas, those spots are now worn out and need a break. You know, to rejuvenate for more stimulation next weekend. Hmm… suddenly what I’m writing is leading to a distinct eyebrow raise. Awwwkard. Moving on!
If you’ve had a weekend like ours, which may or may not have included buffalo bagels (!!!) with an embarrassingly large serving of fresh-made cream cheese, then you’re gonna need one/maybe two of these smoothies.
The Pineapple Berry Smoothie is amazing for a couple (or more, but I need to be modest on a weekday. Sigh.;) reasons. They’re:
- Packed with protein-rich yogurt goodness
- Just the right amount of sweet, with a hint of berry tang
- Super quick, super easy to make
- Yummy on so many levels. Each time you take a sip, you’ll appreciate the taste of each ingredient
- Made with pineapples, strawberries and blueberries (delicious combo, much?)
- And… well, I have to stop now. Because. Modesty? (Overrated, if you ask me.)
Simply take out your blender, pop in Greek yogurt, frozen bananas and almond milk, and blend until it’s all silky smooth. Then, add in a delightful bounty of strawberries, blueberries and pineapple. Blend it like you’re whirring away all memories of those Foods that Shall Not Be Named you ate this weekend.
Then pour, sip and feel better about yourself. Like, instantly.
- 1 ½ cups plain Greek yogurt
- 2 medium bananas, ripened, sliced and frozen
- ¾ cup almond milk, plus more if needed
- ½ cup frozen strawberries
- ¾ cup frozen blueberries
- ½ cup frozen pineapple
- Add yogurt, bananas and milk into blender. Blend until smooth, scraping down sides of blender as needed.
- Add strawberries, blueberries, and pineapple. Blend until smooth. If it’s too thick, add more milk.
- Pour into 2-3 cups. Enjoy immediately!

What kind of fruits do you love in your smoothies?
I can’t wait to read your replies. <3, demeter
Hi there! you don’t have to sell me on the benefits of smoothies. . I love them! Yours is gorgeous! My fave fruits to put in my smoothies? bananas, mangos, oranges, apples and frozen berries! thanks for stopping by my blog! Glad to have met you, Demeter!
Hi Alice! Yes, smoothies are the BEST! 🙂 I completely agree with your list of smoothies ingredient faves. Fruits really are amazing, aren’t they? It’s so nice to meet you too, Alice. Hope to see you again soon! 🙂
This smoothie looks like something out of a dream! lol I’ve never been able to get it together enough to make my own smoothie, but with this recipe I’m definitely going to give it a try. Thanks for sharing! 🙂
Hi Megan! Thank you! Yeah, smoothies definitely seem more fussy than they actually are. Give it a shot, I believe in you! 😉 Thank you for commenting!
Gah, LOVE this smoothie, Demeter! That color though – Show stopper fo’ sho’! You never have to convince me to gulp down smoothies on repeat, especially ones as amazing as this one! What a perfect way to start the day! Cheers, my dear!
P.S. Sounds like you had a fabulous weekend! Yay to that… and pizza. and bagels. 😉
Thanks so much Cheyanne! Yeah, smoothies are just super convenient and yummy! What’s not to like? Meanwhile, it’s not a true weekend if there aren’t pizza and bagels! 😉 Thanks for stopping by Cheyanne!
Healthy and filling smoothie..love the color
Thanks so much! 🙂 Smoothies are the best!
This smoothie looks refreshing! Love smoothies! The buffalo bagels sound deliciou, too!
It’s super refreshing! 🙂 The buffalo bagels were just… OMG amazing! LOL. Thanks for stopping by Mira!
This smoothie looks unbelievable gorgeous! This colour is a dream 🙂
Thanks Evi! 🙂 Blueberries and strawberries always make everything look so pretty!
Beautiful smoothies, Demeter! They sound SOO freaking delicious and just perfect for a little post-weekend detox. In answer to your questions of the day… Foods that shall not be named: anything fried from our local DQ or Culvers. That’s mine and my husband’s weak spot. If I don’t plan an evening snack/dessert, it’s like invasion of the body snatchers… we unwillingly go through the drive through and then, again, unwillingly, eat it ALL (full disclosure: this also may include ice cream/frozen custard) hence, I REALLY try to make sure that we have decent snacks on hand… Fav fruits in smoothies? I tend not to discriminate when it comes to smoothies, but I’m definitely partial to cherries of any kind 🙂
Thanks Stephanie! After those bagels, I needed some detoxing, ya know? 😉 Oh man… fried food from DQ? Excuse me while my mouth waters… It’s so not helpful when you have the same weak spot as your man- this I say from personal experience with Erik. If one of us even whispers “pizza,” it’s all OVER! Haha. And that drive-thru! Oy… who can resist the frozen custard and ice cream (and all of the other goodies??) I agree that it’s a smart move to have decent snacks around. It’s kinda why I got into baking (and mostly for my mom- she’s pre-diabetic). You feel so much better knowing exactly what you put into the food, you know? Anyway, YES on the cherries! Cherries have a sweetness that is pretty much unparalleled. YUM!
Woah! THAT colour is seriously amazing! WANT!
Thanks Jess! Weird, for some reason your comment ended up in spam. I didn’t see it until now. Thanks for dropping by! 🙂
I would love to have a glass of this right now ♥

It’s really the best! 🙂 Thanks for commenting, Summer. <3
I ate all the things this weekend too, but it was because I was sick and so I threw “healthy eating” out the window 🙂 I need this smoothie for the vitamin boost! And I love that color! Give me all the pineapple, it is my favorite thing in smoothies! Pinning it!
Well, at least you had a good excuse. Not us though! LOL. I’m going to virtually send you some of these smoothies! 😉 Pineapples really are the best. Thanks for stopping by and for the pin, Meghan. <3
First: this smoothie is gorgeous! I love the brilliant purple color the berries make from blending all together. Next: my favorite junk food would have to be anything sweet–usually ice cream or chocolate! I’m a big fan of strawberries and pineapple in my smoothies. There’s a great tropical blend of frozen fruit I usually reach for when I’m making smoothies, it’s super convenient and consistently delicious! P.S. I love your blog!
First: thank you! I just love berries! Next: Omigosh, I’m right there with you. Ice cream and chocolate are the best. But when you put those two together, even better. Haha. As for the fruits, I totally agree. Thank you for stopping by Jessica! Hope to see you again soon. 🙂
It looks so tropical & delicious! I need to make smoothies more often.
This smoothie is definitely tastes like a vacation. 😉 Hope you try this recipe! Thanks for stopping by Katie. 🙂

Thank you for your kind words so much Michele. 🙂 You just totally made my day! Hope to see you again soon!
Oh smoothies – WHY OH WHY don’t I make you more? I think this is the perfect one to start with – all the spring colors!!
Make them more!!! Haha. This smoothie is really delicious, but guilt-free. Try it out and let me know what you think. Thanks Kate! 🙂
What great photos! Those colors are so refreshing, and I can just imagine how incredibly tasty as well.
Thanks Aida. 🙂 This smoothie is the most refreshing; I hope you give it a shot! Thanks for stopping by. 🙂
