Commonly asked Questions :
Why Frozen Bananas and Pineapple?
Frozen bananas are a fabulous secret to smoothie making. That’s because when blended, frozen bananas create a rich ice-cream-like texture without watering down the flavour.
If you don’t keep frozen bananas stocked, simply slice one up and pop it in the freezer 30 minutes before you want to make your smoothie. Bananas can last for 3 months in the freezer easily, so feel free to stock up while you’re prepping for this smoothie!
As for the pineapple, freezing it helps to add a delightful chill to the smoothie while also contributing to its creamy texture. Plus, frozen pineapple ensures that your smoothie is bursting with sweet and tangy flavour, elevating its taste to a whole new level.

Yes, you can turn it into a smoothie bowl! Simply reduce the amount of coconut milk to make the smoothie extra-thick.
