Pineapple detox smoothie – a creamy delicious drink full of good for you ingredients. 

This pineapple detox smoothie is my latest favorite way to pack lots of goodness into a drink.

It’s a close call which is my favorite smoothie right now, this or my peanut butter banana smoothie. 

My son Crosby is still a very picky eater, but he will drink any and every smoothie.

I love that I can put tons of nutrition into a glass for him to drink up (he loves glass straws just like us!)

This simple and delicious pineapple detox is made with ingredients that will make you feel great!

pineapple detox smoothie ingredients

• fresh pineapple
• cucumber
• celery
• lemon
• ginger
• frozen bananas
• frozen peaches
• ice

Tropical smoothies with pineapple taste so fresh and really satisfy my sweet tooth.

I personally love my smoothies to be really thick, more like ice cream texture or icee texture.

In order to make this smoothie the way I did, you will need to use your high speed blender.

The most common brands are blendtec or vitamix. 

If you don’t have a high speed blender, you might want to add water or not use some of the harder to break down ingredients.

Fresh ginger, celery, and lemon especially will not break down well in a regular powered blender. 

It just depends on the strength of your blender.

How to make a pineapple detox smoothie

First, peel your cucumber, lemon, and ginger. 

Add pineapple, cucumber, celery, ginger, lemon, banana, and peaches to a high speed blender.

Blend until smooth.

Add ice to desired texture and keep blending (I used 2 cups of ice).

Pour into glasses and serve immediately.

This smoothie recipe easily serves 3 – 4 people, but you can either halve the recipe or store leftovers in the fridge.

See how thick it is on the spoon?

That is the perfect smoothie texture in my opinion!

Tips for storing leftover smoothies

If you plan to store the leftovers, just pour the detox smoothie into mason jars with matching lids to seal tight.

When you go to drink your leftover smoothie, just blend with ice to desired texture if you want it to be thick.

This pineapple detox smoothie tastes like a pineapple frosty to me.

I love to add extra ice to make my smoothies overly thick.

Not only is it more delicious, but I feel like I’m getting a treat.

I honestly crave smoothies now that I have learned how to make them delicious every time!

If you can’t figure out how to make smoothies that always taste good, be sure to read my guide on how to make a smoothie!

One note about the celery – if you are not a celery person, I would not add this in.

It’s totally optional for the smoothie, but you definitely will taste a hint of celery.

My husband and I like celery, so we didn’t hardly notice.

You won’t, however, taste the cucumber.

The other flavors of the smoothie will come through much stronger than the cucumber. 

I love that this smoothie uses no liquid, that helps make it even more thick.

It’s a great example of how to make a smoothie without milk!

The liquid from the cucumber and pineapple gave it enough juice to blend without adding any additional water or other liquid.

For even more punch, add in some baby spinach.

You won’t even notice it!

Happy smoothie making!
