Pineapple coconut slushy
I have been craving a pineapple coconut slushy for the longest I can remember. This variation is easy and simple and the taste is phenomenal.
I didn’t know how easy a pineapple coconut slushy could be to make. My kids love them but I am always hesitant to buy them because they contain a lot of artificial and fake ingredients.
I have been keeping seltzer water in my fridge at all times to make slushies. Whenever my kids want to enjoy a sweet treat this is what I am giving them. I have made a mixed berry one that was fantastic. I will be posting that recipe soon as I will be making it over and over again it is that good.
Making your own slushy variations is super simple as well. Just make sure that you use frozen fruit and seltzer water to obtain the consistency of a slushy. I think you could even throw in some flaxseed meal or other nutritional ingredients. Maybe next time I will try to include some powdered protein as well.
There is not much to elaborate on this pineapple coconut slushy. This recipe is going to come in handy this summer. It is super refreshing, healthy and extremely easy to put together.
Let me know if you come up with any other variations. I will sure love to have them so that I can try them.
Enjoy!

That sounds delicious!!!! Thank you! Question: What’s the difference between coconut cream and full fat coconut milk like this http://www.iherb.com/Edward-Sons-Organic-Coconut-Milk-Classic-Unsweetened-13-5-fl-oz-398-ml/32706?gclid=CPn10auAhr0CFaVQOgodMk0AVw&gclsrc=aw.ds ? Thank you again.
I think I have a craving too now…this smoothie looks too good to pass up! :) ela
Coconut milk is like milk consistency while coconut cream is more concentrated and thick. You could use coconut milk for this thought too if you like. Thanks for visiting my blog.
Avec le lait de coco, ça doit être divin:) Bon début de semaine!!xx
I’ve never tried to make a homemade slushie either but YUM. The pineapple coconut sounds crazy refreshing!
Where do you find coconut water and coconut cream in the grocery store, please? I have never heard of either!! :0) I was actually embarrassed to ask you that! I am assuming the seltzer water is where the water bottles are at, right? Thank you and sorry for so many questions!
You can find coconut cream or milk on the international isle at your grocery store. It normally comes on cans. You can also buy coconut milk on the milk isle sometimes. I get my coconut water at trader joes but if you can’t find any use pineapple juice instead :-) Thanks for stopping by.
