Only 3 ingredients! For best results, start with cold ingredients. Use frozen pineapple. Chill the watermelon and coconut water.

Ingredients for a pineapple melon smoothie.

These are the best ingredients for a delicious and refreshing watermelon smoothie.

Fresh watermelon cubes are the backbone of this smoothie. Start with chilled chunks of melon. I have a tutorial to help you break a watermelon down into cubes. It’s super easy! If you’re looking to use up pre-cut watermelon slices, you can cut the rinds off and use them.

Unsweetened frozen pineapple chunks. Buy a bag in the freezer aisle, or make your own by cutting up a pineapple and freezing it. Check out the instructions in my pina colada recipe if you need help cutting a pineapple. 

Use chilled, unsweetened coconut water. I like Vita Coco. I swear, this stuff is life-giving. It boosts the tropical flavor and provides liquid for blending the pineapple. It also adds extra nutrients and is very hydrating.

Add an optional citrus twist! Add a tablespoon of fresh squeezed lime juice and garnish with a lime wedge.

How to Make it

  • Prepare your ingredients. Make sure everything stays cold! 
  • Add them to a blender with the watermelon closest to the blade. Crushing the watermelon first will add liquid for blending the pineapple. 
  • Blend until smooth.
  • Pour into a chilled glass and enjoy!

Serving Tips

  • I love serving these as a healthy drink at breakfast. Each smoothie contains 1 ½ cups of fresh fruit and provides a natural sweetness! My 1-year-old and my picky toddler both love them!
  • It makes a perfect afternoon or after-school snack.
  • It’s the perfect way to hydrate and cool down after a run or a workout at the gym.
  • They make a great mocktail for parties and BBQs! Use the instructions for making a pitcher and serve them to a crowd!
  • Serve them at a baby shower. The mama-to-be will be so grateful!
  • Speaking of mamas-to-be, these make an ultimate pregnancy snack! They will cool you down, hydrate you, and provide nutrients to you and that sweet little bun in the oven!
