Pineapple Smoothie

I was in the mood for something sweet and cool this evening, and decided to try to create a pineapple smoothie with a few things I had in the house.  It turned out delicious.  I am sipping on it now, in fact!  It is creamy and smooth, but not too thick, as I don't like smoothies to be super thick.  It is tangy and sweet, but not overly sweet.  Dan loved it, too, so I thought I would share the recipe with you. 

Laurie's Pineapple Smoothie

Put in blender:
6-8 ice cubes
1/2 can undiluted, still-frozen pineapple juice concentrate
6-7 oz coconut milk, or about 1/2 a can
1/4 cup plain yogurt
1 cup water
1 tsp powdered sugar

Blend at high speed on blender until fully mixed and a little frothy.

This made two very large servings or four smaller ones.  As you can see, this has two "1/2 can" measurements, so it would be easy to make two batches out of the full cans, for four-eight servings.  However, a double amount of the ingredients won't fit in any standard size blender, so it would still have to be divided.

Happy eating!
